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

This study investigates factors influencing women's childbirth experiences, aligning with World Health Organization guidelines emphasizing the importance of a positive pregnancy and childbirth journey. Conducted at the RigaMaternity Hospital between June 2022 and February 2024, the research included 133 women who completed 2 postpartum questionnaires-the short version of the Quality from the Patient's Perspective at discharge, and the Childbirth Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) 4 weeks later. Key findings emerged from the CEQ analysis. The contract either midwife or doctor was the main factor for higher satisfaction with labor across all CEQ domains. Unplanned medical interventions such as episiotomy were associated with lower scores in the domains "Own capacity" and "Perceived safety." In contrast, patients who experienced a spontaneous perineal tear reported significantly more positive answers on "Own capacity" and "Participation" scales. A moderate negative correlation was observed between postpartum blood loss and "Own capacity" (ρ = -0.331,
