Neurocognitive and Health Correlates of Overweight and Obesity among Ten-Year-Old Children Born Extremely Preterm.
Observational study in The Journal of pediatrics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo assess the relationship between overweight (body mass index [BMI] percentile ≥85 and <95) and obesity (BMI ≥95 percentile) and developmental and health outcomes at 10 years of age in a cohort of individuals born extremely preterm. STUDY
designThis was an observational cohort study of children born extremely preterm and then assessed at age 10 years for neurocognitive function and parent-reported behavior and health outcomes. Participants included 871 children aged 10 years. To describe the strength of association between overweight or obesity and outcomes, we used logistic regression models adjusting for confounders. Neurocognitive function, academic achievement, parent-reported health outcome surveys, and height and weight were measured.
resultsBMI category at 10 years of age was not associated with differences in intelligence, language, or academic achievement. Parents of children with obesity were more likely to report their child had asthma (OR 2.2; 95% CI 1.4-3.5), fair/poor general health (OR 3.2; 95% CI 1.4-7.5), and decreased physical function (OR 1.7; 95% CI 1.1-2.9) but less likely to have physician diagnosed attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (OR 0.5; 95% CI 0.3-0.97) or an individualized education plan (OR 0.6; 95% CI 0.4-0.99).
conclusionAmong children born extremely preterm, an elevated BMI, compared with normal or low BMI, is not associated with a difference in neurocognitive function. However, asthma, fair/poor general health, and decreased physical function were more prevalent among study participants with obesity, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and individualized education plan were less prevalent.
