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

Introduction: Since the escalation of the armed conflict in Ukraine in 2022, the number of Ukrainian citizens in Poland has increased considerably, especially among women. The study aimed to explore the opinions of migrant women from Ukraine regarding the intrapartum and midwifery care they received in Poland, as well as to analyse demographic, migration-related, clinical, and psychosocial variables associated with these aspects of care. Methods: The study was conducted using the diagnostic survey method between December 2024 and February 2025 among 481 migrant women from Ukraine who gave birth in Poland. The research tool was an original questionnaire developed in Ukrainian. Results: The migrant women from Ukraine reported high assessment scores for the intrapartum care (M = 8.8) and midwifery care (M = 9.0) they received in Poland. The variable most strongly associated with higher ratings of intrapartum and midwifery care was the fulfilment of childbirth related expectations ( Conclusion: The study underscores that the fulfilment of birth-related expectations, access to information regarding the medical situation, and the absence of discrimination or humiliation were associated with more favourable evaluations of intrapartum and midwifery care among migrant women from Ukraine in Poland.
