Article in Health science reports, 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
Background: The use of contraceptives is key to reducing unsafe abortions from unintended pregnancies and helping to improve maternal health and socioeconomic outcomes. It allows individuals to achieve their desired family size and timing effectively. Therefore, this study aimed to identify multi-level factors for Modern Contraceptive use among Reproductive-Age Women in Ethiopia. Methods: Data for this study were extracted from the nationally representative 2019 Ethiopian Mini Health Analysis with Health Survey of Mini-EDHS 2019. The survey employed a two-stage cluster sampling design: enumeration areas (EAs) were selected in the first stage, followed by household selection in the second stage. Data collection took place from March 21 to June 28, 2019. A mixed-effects multilevel analysis was used to identify factors associated with modern contraceptive use. Result: A total of 8885 (Wt = 100) participants were included in the study, with a mean age of participants 27.5 years (SD ± 10.3). In Ethiopia, modern contraceptive utilization among reproductive-age women was 23.8%. The prevalence was 90.79% for married women and 3.74% for never-in-union women. The most common methods were injectable 13.6% and implants 5.8%. In the final multi-level logistic regression being woman aged 15-25 years (AOR = 4.91; 95% CI: 2.70-11.38), having children 13-24 months (AOR = 2.40; 95% CI: 2.50-25.6), married women (AOR = 7.90; 95% CI: 2.47-25.60), Completed high school (AOR = 1.65; 95% CI: 1.20-2.60), middle wealth index (AOR = 1.55; 95% CI: 1.15-1.98), urban resident (AOR = 1.69; 95% CI: 1.20-2.40), living in Amhara region (AOR = 2.74; 95% CI: 1.24-3.50), and mass media exposures (AOR = 1.69; 95% CI: 1.21-2.93) were associated with modern contraceptives usages. In contrast, residing in the Somali region decreased the likelihood by 88% (AOR = 0.22; 95% CI: 0.11-0.45) of using contraceptives. Conclusion: Modern contraceptive use among women of reproductive age in Ethiopia remains critically low, falling short of the target set for 2030. The variation in usage is significantly influenced by both individual and community-level factors. To address this gap, the government should prioritize investments in education and financial empowerment to strengthen women's autonomy in family planning decision-making.
