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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThe objective of this study was to determine whether parental preferences regarding primary care weight-management strategies differ by child age, gender, overweight severity, race/ethnicity or parental agreement that their child is overweight.

methodsA survey was administered to parents of 2- to 18-year-old children who are overweight at an academic primary-care clinic regarding perception of child overweight, helpful/harmfulness of having the child present during weight discussions, and dietary-advice preferences. Multivariable analyses examined factors associated with preferred weight-management strategies, after adjustment for parent/child characteristics.

resultsEighty-three per cent of parents agreed that a child's presence during weight discussions is helpful/very helpful, 74% that paediatricians should prescribe specific diets, and 55% preferred specific vs. general dietary advice only (

conclusionsFindings suggest that weight-management strategies tailored to child age, gender, over-weight severity, race/ethnicity and parental agreement that their child is overweight may prove useful in improving child weight status.
