1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Maternal mortality has remained a major public health issue globally. Although there has been substantial reduction in maternal mortality, Ethiopia is still one of the highest burden countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Person-centered maternity care plays a key role in ending preventable maternal mortality. Nevertheless, little is known about the status of person-centered maternity care during facility-based childbirth in eastern Ethiopia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the status of person-centered maternity care and its associated factors during childbirth at selected public hospitals in eastern Ethiopia. Methods: We had conducted a facility-based cross-sectional study at selected public hospitals in eastern Ethiopia from May 16 to June 17, 2022. A total of 420 postpartum women, selected by a systematic random sampling technique, were included in the study. We had collected our data by face-to-face interview using a pretested structured questionnaire. Then, the data were entered into EpiData 4.6 and exported to SPSS version 26 for cleaning and analysis. We applied linear regression analyses to determine the associations between dependent and independent variables. The association was reported using a β coefficient with a 95% confidence interval (CI) and a Results: The percentage mean score of person-centered maternity care was 68.1 (CI: 59.94, 62.66), SD (±14.1). From the subscales of person-centered maternity care, the percentage mean score of dignity and respect was 80.6%, communication and autonomy 61.1%, and 67.3% for supportive care. Women who'd had antenatal care (ANC) follow-up ( Conclusion: Our study revealed that the mean person-centered maternity care score of the participants was significantly higher than in previous studies. Women who had antenatal care follow-up, experienced complications during childbirth, gave birth to a live newborn, and had a hospital stay of more than two days were significantly associated with person-centered maternity care. Therefore, we strongly concluded that strengthening antenatal care utilization and early detection and appropriate management of childbirth and pregnancy complications would greatly improve person-centered maternity care.
