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

Worldwide, 1 in 5 children under 5 years experiences undernutrition; most commonly in in low- and middle-income countries. Inadequate nutrient and energy intake places children at risk of stunted growth, which is associated with delayed development, increased mortality, and reduced productivity in adulthood. We investigated global approaches for managing stunting in young children (ages 1-5 years) by reviewing research on nutrition-focused interventions and public health frameworks. Our aim was to identify components of effective nutritional care and monitoring. We screened 1,636 studies, reviewed 207 abstracts and full-texts, and included 9 studies for final analysis. These studies, conducted in China, Colombia, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Mexico (
