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

backgroundReducing negative pregnancy outcomes depends on maternal knowledge of pregnancy-related risk factors. Developing efficient maternal health interventions in post-conflict Mosul, Iraq, where the healthcare system has been significantly compromised, will depend on assessing pregnant women's knowledge and attitudes regarding pregnancy risks. This study sought to evaluate knowledge and attitudes about pregnancy-related risk factors among pregnant women in Mosul City, Iraq, as well as to identify the socio-demographic factors influencing this knowledge. MATERIALS AND

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from January to April 2024 in Mosul City, Iraq. From January to April 2024, 420 pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in Mosul participated. Socio-demographic information was gathered using a standardized questionnaire; knowledge and attitudes regarding pregnancy risk factors were also evaluated using this tool. Knowledge scores were calculated and analyzed in relation to demographic variables using appropriate statistical tests.

resultsThe mean knowledge score was 15.63 ± 5.72 out of a possible 30 points, indicating moderate knowledge levels. Only 23.8% of participants demonstrated good knowledge. Higher knowledge scores were significantly associated with higher education level (

conclusionPregnant women in Mosul demonstrated moderate knowledge of pregnancy-related risk factors with significant educational and socioeconomic disparities.
