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
Introduction: Immediate postpartum family planning refers to the provision of family planning counseling and contraception methods to a woman within the first 48 hours after childbirth. This provision of family planning fills gaps in terms of Knowledge (limited evidence on overall IPPFP utilization beyond single methods inadequate data on how women's empowerment, partner involvement and counseling quality jointly influence IPPFP utilization), practice (poor understanding of health facility- and provider-related barriers such as;- counseling practices, staff training, method availability and documentation), Methodologically, the study generates, the current status of IPPFP utilization, and identify the barriers of IPPFP utilization. Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted at public hospitals in Addis, Ababa, from February to March 2025 with a total of 442 study participants. Systematic random sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Pretested, structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect the data. Collected data were entered into Epi-data version 3.1 and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Bi-variable logistic regression analysis was carried out and Statistical significance was declared at a p value <0.05 with a 95% confidence interval. Results: The prevalence of immediate postpartum family planning utilization was 17.5% (95% CI: 14.3-21.5). Factors significantly associated with IPPFP utilization included good knowledge (AOR = 4.8; 95% CI: 1.73-13.3), receiving postnatal counseling (AOR = 2.11; 95% CI: 1.07-4.17), awareness of contraceptive contraindications (AOR = 2.82; 95% CI: 1.02-3.23), and having 2-4 living children (AOR = 2.7; 95% CI: 1.35-5.40). Conclusions: IPPFP utilization was low compared to the national target (40%). Key factors influencing utilization included knowledge, postnatal counseling, awareness of contraindications, and parity. Strengthening counseling before discharge, improving community awareness, and ensuring providers consistently offer IPPFP to all eligible women are recommended to enhance utilization.
