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

Inadequate husband involvement remains a major barrier to effective birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) for maternal and newborn care in rural India. Hence, a cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2025 to December 2025 at the Rural Health and Training Centre, Manglia, including 283 pregnant woman-husband dyads. The BPCR index was 45.86, indicating suboptimal preparedness in the study population. Significant associations were observed between husband involvement and completion of 4 ANC visits (OR=1.7), knowledge of one key danger sign of pregnancy (OR=1.8) and awareness of essential newborn care (OR=1.8). Thus, we show that husbands' participation is significantly linked to better BPCR-related practices, supporting their inclusion in maternal counselling strategies.
