Metabolically Unhealthy Phenotype: A Key Factor in Determining "Pediatric" Frailty.
Article in Pediatric reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Frailty (FI) and metabolic syndrome (MS) are each associated with adverse health outcomes. A relationship between FI and MS has previously been described in adults. We considered the prevalence of a metabolically unhealthy phenotype (MUP) in malnourished children with neurological impairment and in subjects with obesity in comparison to a group of elderly individuals at risk of FI, and we did so in order to define the potential similarities that may underline the risk of FI in specific children. We considered 50 undernourished (defined as having a body mass index of BMI ≤ 2, standard deviation score, SDS, according to World Health Organization) disabled children; 50 children with obesity (BMI ≥ 2 SDS); 50 children who were a normal weight (-1 SDS ≤ BMI ≤ +1 SDS); 21 patients who were >75 years old. MUP was defined as the presence of at least one of the following risk factors: hypertension, hyperglycemia or diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertriglyceridemia. In children with a disability and obesity, a higher prevalence (
