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
objectivesTo assess the association between perceived discrimination in health care and postpartum contraceptive plans among a diverse group of postpartum individuals. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study of individuals postpartum prior to hospital discharge recruited from a single tertiary care hospital between 2021 and 2023. Participants completed a 10-minute electronic survey during their postpartum stay, which included the Perceived Discrimination in Healthcare Scale and questions about their contraceptive plans. The primary exposure was perceived discrimination characterized as no or one experience of discrimination versus multiple experiences of discrimination. The primary outcome was planned tier of postpartum contraceptive efficacy. Multinomial logistic regression was used to examine associations between perceived racial discrimination in health care and planned postpartum contraception.
resultsAmong 482 participants, 21.4% reported multiple discrimination experiences with disproportionately frequent reports among those with Black versus non-Black race (52.4%, DISCUSSION: Higher levels of perceived discrimination were not significantly associated with postpartum contraceptive efficacy tier though wide confidence intervals reflect we were likely underpowered. The prevalence of discrimination warrants intervention. Improving patient-provider communication may reduce perceived discrimination and its potential impact on contraceptive choices.
