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/objectives: Türkiye, the world's largest host of Syrian migrants, provides a unique context for examining reproductive health disparities. This study examines trends in modern contraceptive use among migrant and host community women over a decade. Methods: A retrospective descriptive study with analytical components was conducted using data from 17,226 women (8,632 host community; 8,594 migrant) attending a tertiary family planning clinic in Istanbul between January 2014 and December 2024. Each visit was treated as an independent observation. Binary logistic regression identified predictors of modern contraceptive use. Results: Modern contraceptive use was significantly higher among host community women (63.5%) than migrants (39.3%). Migrants showed greater reliance on traditional methods (31.4% vs. 12.8%), particularly withdrawal (27.4%), and higher non-use (25.1% vs. 6.5%). After adjustment, migrant status remained independently associated with lower odds of modern contraceptive use (aOR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.46-0.57, Conclusion: Migrant women demonstrated substantially lower modern contraceptive use. Findings underscore the need for multilingual, culturally sensitive family planning programs targeting migrant populations.
