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
objectiveThe prevalence of overweight/obesity in China has increased dramatically in recent years; being overweight/obese can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to determine the population in China at high risk of being overweight or obese, to explore the relationships between various relevant factors and overweight/obesity, and to identify preventive efforts for high-risk populations.
methodsWe administered a questionnaire survey among a group of 536 social workers in Shijiazhuang City in 2017. We used the Pearson chi-square test, Spearman's rho test, multivariate linear regression, univariate and multivariate logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis to investigate factors that influence overweight/obesity.
resultsThe prevalence of overweight/obesity was 13.7% among the study participants. Urban residence, eating speed, number of daily meals, overeating, and a high-fat diet were associated with overweight/obesity. In multivariate linear regression analysis, overweight/obesity was correlated with sex, urban residence, eating speed, number of daily meals, and a high-fat diet.
conclusionAmong all influencing factors, dietary factors, place of residence, and sex were most closely related to being overweight/obese. Furthermore, living in an urban area and male sex were independent risk factors for being overweight/obese.
