Maternal Satisfaction With Midwives' Caregiving in Public Health Facilities: A Scoping Review.
Review in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Midwives play an important role in women's childbirth-led care as they provide a protective role against maternal stress and foster deeper relationships. Midwives can significantly influence satisfaction levels, particularly when they provide consistent, high-quality, and empathetic support throughout labor and delivery, with potential positive implications on healthcare systems. This study aimed to review the current literature on indicators of maternal satisfaction with midwife care received during childbirth. A comprehensive search of the available literature regarding maternal satisfaction from midwives' caregiving was conducted using the databases PubMed and Scopus. Cumulative evidence supports the idea that midwifery care is a primordial factor in maternal satisfaction. Midwives' caregiving is pivotal in terms of maternal satisfaction from public health facilities. Given the plethora of contextual, cultural, and methodological parameters that influence maternal satisfaction, suitable and well-founded tools are needed to ensure continuous quality of care and to address current deficits in health systems. More high-quality studies need to be conducted in order to investigate the critical role of midwifery care during antenatal care.
