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

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) in youth is on the rise and many of these youth already have comorbidity at disease onset. The TODAY trial clearly demonstrated the challenges of treating this disease. Obesity is a key risk factor in the development of youth-onset T2D, and its prevention can mitigate the risk for developing T2D. However, childhood obesity prevention efforts to date have shown only modest effectiveness. Considering the larger, complex socioeconomic and cultural contexts that influence health behaviors among children and their families can enhance prevention efforts. Community-based participatory, multi-component, multi-setting childhood obesity prevention initiatives designed using the socio-ecological model and systems theory have been effective in sustainably decreasing childhood overweight and obesity. To advance our progress in treating and preventing T2D in youth, we must apply this new knowledge on community-wide childhood obesity prevention to enhance the impact of individual-level therapeutic strategies such as the TODAY intervention.
