Concentration curve of the first ANC attendance, Debre Brehan, North East Ethiopia, 2018. The horizontal line that dissects the rectangle into two equal parts is the line of equality, i.e., the situation when all studied women use first ANC visit equally without any distinction based on their SES. The line that lies above this 45-degree line is the concentration curve, indicating more prevalence of the service among women from less well-off backgrounds. In the x axis of the graph, cumulative percentage of the study participant is plotted from the poorest to the richest wealth quintile. The y axis represents cumulative share of the first ANC attendance. Twice the area between the concentration curve and the equality line is concentration index
