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: Obesity is a significant public health concern, with its prevalence rising in many countries worldwide. Studies have shown that women are more likely to become obese than men. This article aimed to describe the nutritional status of women, determine the prevalence of obesity, and explore its associations with sociodemographic, behavioral, and health characteristics. Methods: This cross-sectional, analytical, population-based study was conducted in Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. It included women 18 years and older. Obesity was assessed based on self-reported weight and height and was classified according to the body mass index (BMI). Women were classified as obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m Results: Among the women studied, 3% were underweight [ Conclusion: Our findings indicate that obesity is significantly associated with age, family income, education level, number of pregnancies, and chronic diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, and depression.
