description: Additional file 1: Supplementary Fig. 1. PRISMA 2020 flow diagram for the process of studies screening and selection. Supplementary Fig. 2. Sensitivity analysis for the effects of oral consumption of dates in late pregnancy on the duration of gestation (a), labor’s latent phase (b), labor’s active phase (c), the first labor stage (d), the second labor stage (e), and the third labor stage (f). Supplementary Fig. 3. Sensitivity analysis for the effects of oral consumption of dates in labor on the duration of total labor (a), labor’s active phase (b), the first labor stage (c), the second labor stage (d), and the third labor stage (e); and cervical dilatation approximately two hours after the beginning of intervention (f). Supplementary Fig. 4. Sensitivity analysis for the effects of oral consumption of dates in late pregnancy on cervical dilatation upon admission (a); Bishop score (b); frequency of spontaneous onset of labor (c); and frequency of need for labor induction (d). Supplementary Fig. 5. Sensitivity analysis for the effects of oral consumption of dates in late pregnancy on the frequency of spontaneous vaginal delivery (a), need for instrumental vaginal delivery (b), and need for cesarean section delivery (c). Supplementary Fig. 6. Sensitivity analysis for the effects of oral consumption of dates in postpartum on changes in breast milk quantity from baseline to post-intervention (a); the frequency of smoothness of breast milk production (b); and first-day postpartum bleeding rate (c).

Dose-response analysis for the association between the total administration dosage of dates and changes in the duration of the second labor stage (minute, intervention time: labor). Supplementary Fig. 9. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration duration of dates and changes in the length of the first labor stage (minute, intervention time: late pregnancy). Supplementary Fig. 10. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration dosage and duration of dates and changes in the length of the second labor stage (minute, intervention time: late pregnancy). Supplementary Fig. 11. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration dosage and duration of dates and changes in the length of the third labor stage (minute, intervention time: late pregnancy). Supplementary Fig. 12. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration dosage of dates and changes in the length of the third labor stage (minute, intervention time: labor). Supplementary Fig. 13. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration dosage and duration of dates and changes in the cervical dilation upon admission (centimeters, intervention time: late pregnancy). Supplementary Fig. 14. Dose-response analysis for the association between the administration dosage and duration of dates and changes in the maternal hemoglobin levels (gr/dl, intervention time: the third trimester of pregnancy).Supplementary Fig. 15.
