Multilevel Analysis of Community Acquired Pneumonia Among 2-59 Months Old Children in Awi Zone, Northwest Ethiopia: A Community-Based Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Health science reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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 and Aims: Worldwide, pneumonia was responsible for about 740,180 deaths in children under 5 year, accounting for 14% of all deaths in 2019. The purpose of this study was to identify associated risk factors of community acquired pneumonia among 2-59 months old children in Awi Zone, Northwest Ethiopia. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March to July 2023, using a multistage sampling method to select 1368 participants. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Multilevel analysis was used to identify factors associated with community-acquired pneumonia. Variables with Results: The prevalence of community acquired pneumonia among 2-59 months old was 11.33%. Primary education (AOR = 0.34; 95% CI: 0.12, 0.95), stunting (AOR = 6.12; 95% CI: 2.41, 15.51), having diarrhea (AOR = 5.04; 95% CI: 2.41, 10.55), history of acute lower respiratory tract infection (AOR = 20.84; 95% CI: 3.95, 109.83), use of charcoal as fuel source (AOR = 130.56, 95% CI: 5.94, 2869.18), carrying of a child on mother during cooking (AOR = 2.27, 95% CI: 1.10, 4.69), and presence of separate kitchen (AOR = 0.38; 95% CI: 0.19, 0.74) were associated with community acquired pneumonia. Conclusion: Mother education, age of child, stunting, presence of separate kitchen, previous respiratory tract infection, use of charcoal for fuel source, carrying of a child on mother during cooking, and history of diarrhea showed a significant association with community acquired pneumonia. Therefore, we recommend adequate health education on nutrition, diarrhea prevention and treatment, and reducing indoor air pollution to reduce the risk of community-acquired pneumonia.
