Linear and skull growth in extremely low birth weight babies with rickets of prematurity.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Preterm birth results in poor accretion of bone minerals and development of rickets of prematurity. Poor skeletal growth is one of the long term morbidities of this condition, which is said to have a lesser effect on the skull growth. The present study was a retrospective observational study to compare the effect of rickets of prematurity on the linear and skull growth in the first year of life. In this retrospective analysis, 1 y follow-up records of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) babies born in five consecutive years and their anthropometric data were evaluated. ELBW babies with confirmed rickets of prematurity were taken as the study group and those without were taken as the control group and anthropometric values (head size and length) at various ages in the first year of life were compared using relevant statistical software. Both the lengths and head sizes of the babies in the two groups were found to be comparable until the age of 12 mo.
