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
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity and its relationship with cardiovascular risk diseases among different sex and age groups in an urban Chinese adult population. A retrospective analysis was performed on 384,061 Chinese adults aged 20 years and older in Nanjing. The age-standardized prevalence of overweight and obesity was 42.8% and 13.2% in men and 23.9% and 6.6% in women. A gradually increasing trend was observed in the prevalence of overweight and obesity from 2008 to 2016, especially in individuals aged 20~39 years. Overweight and obesity were significantly associated with increased risks of dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperuricemia. Age weakened such relationship for both genders, which spiked in individuals aged 20~39 years. For men and women aged 20~39 years, the OR (95% CI) of obesity reached 4.23 (4.01-4.47) and 5.29 (4.63-6.04) for dyslipidemia, 3.70 (2.97-4.60) and 6.38 (3.86-10.55) for diabetes mellitus, 6.19 (5.76-6.64) and 9.36 (7.86-11.13) for hypertension, and 3.66 (3.45-3.88) and 6.65 (5.70-7.74) for hyperuricemia, respectively. The increasing trend in the epidemic of overweight and obesity is a risk factor for cardiovascular risk diseases in Chinese adults, especially in individuals aged 20~39 years.
