Education level, contraceptive communication, and IUD use among rural-to-urban migrants in China: A qualitative study.
Article in PloS one, 2024. 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
Chinese rural-to-urban migrant workers have high rates of unintended pregnancy, yet many are reluctant to choose the most effective forms of contraception, such as IUDs (intrauterine devices). Those who do are often socioeconomically disadvantaged, a finding that contradicts much health research, namely that higher SES individuals can access better healthcare. This puzzle highlights the need to understand better migrant workers' contraceptive decision-making. This paper reports findings from interviews with 91 migrant workers. Across educational backgrounds, IUD use usually followed contraceptive-related communication. Female interviewees with less education were more likely to have contraception-related discussions, including with doctors, in which the benefits of IUDs emerged. Typically, however, these conversations happened after a pregnancy. The findings suggest a need for public awareness campaigns that destigmatize discussion of contraception and interventions targeted by education level.
