Risk factors for perinatal intimate partner violence: a global systematic review and meta-analyses.
Synthesis in BMC women's health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundPerinatal intimate partner violence (IPV) is highly prevalent in different regions worldwide. However, there is still insufficient systematic evidence on the risk factors for perinatal IPV across various regions and socioeconomic levels, which presents challenges in developing targeted prevention programs. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analyses was to identify the risk factors for perinatal IPV across various regions and socioeconomic levels worldwide.
methodsA comprehensive systematic literature search was conducted across multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science, encompassing all available studies from each database’s inception date to June 2024. Potential risk of bias in the included studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklists. Subgroup analyses were also performed by region and level of economic development.
resultsA total of 83 studies were included in the review, involving 1,609,201 participants, of whom 90,479 (5.6%) experienced perinatal IPV. For the type of violence, 64 studies reported overall IPV, 21 reported physical violence, 12 reported psychological violence, and 10 reported sexual violence. The meta-analyses showed that major risk factors for these types of violence included woman’s education level, woman’s working status, pregnancy intention, social or family support, partner’s education level, and partner’s alcohol consumption. However, some factors varied across different regions and levels of economic development, suggesting contextual influences on risk factors for perinatal IPV.
conclusionsThis is a comprehensive review on the risk factors for perinatal IPV across regions with varying levels of economic development. These factors vary across different regions and economic contexts. In high-income countries, IPV is more commonly associated with mental health status and addictive behaviors, while in middle- and low-income countries, it is primarily associated with low education levels, economic dependence, and partner’s risk behaviors. This finding highlights the necessity of fully considering contextual factors in future risk assessments for perinatal IPV and establishing corresponding prevention and intervention strategies.
