Growth monitoring and promotion uptake and its associated factors among mothers/ caregivers of children aged under two years in Wondo District, Ethiopia: Cross-sectional Study.
Article in PloS one, 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
introductionGrowth monitoring and promotion (GMP) can be used to address developmental halting before a child's health deteriorates. However, there hasn't been much research done on the GMP uptake in the Wondo district.
objectiveThe study aimed to evaluate GMP uptake and its associated factors among children aged under two years old in the Wondo District in 2024.
methodsA cross-sectional design was conducted using random sampling. The data were analysed using SPSS version 25. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression with a p-value of less than 0.05 were used.
resultsGMP uptake was 14.2%. Household income above $32 monthly [AOR = 4.857, 95% CI: (2.009-11.744), read and write [AOR = 10.625, 95% CI: (2.667-42.334)], primary education [AOR = 9.067, 95% CI: (3.218-25.546)], secondary and above[AOR = 8.060, 95% CI: (2.952-22.007)], ANC follow up, [AOR = 2.871, 95% CI: (1.158-7.120)], health facility delivery [AOR = 4.037, 95% CI: (1.706-9.554)], PNC follow up [AOR = 4.110, 95% CI: (1.898-8.900)], maternal community conversation [AOR = 4.162, 95% CI: (1.974-8.775)], and family health cards utilization [AOR = 6.825, 95% CI: (2.935-15.867)] were significant variables.
conclusionThe GMP uptake was 14.2%. ANC follow-up, institutional delivery, PNC follow-up, family/child health card utilization, maternal community discussions, mother's educational status, and household income were associated factors. Community conversations, family health cards, ANC, institutional delivery, and PNC follow-up can improve GMP services.
