A Retrospective Analysis of Patients with Short Stature in the South of China between 2007 and 2015.
Article in BioMed research international, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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 describe the demographic features of children with short stature and poor growth in the south of China and provide better guidance on clinical strategy and decisions. STUDY
designThis retrospective, chart review study analyzed children with short stature and poor growth admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from Jan 2007 to Dec 2015.
resultsThe chart review yielded 4142 patients, including 2546 boys and 1596 girls (
conclusionsThere was an increasing tendency to focus on children's height. Parents and pediatricians were recommended to pay more attention to the treatment needs of girls while avoiding excessive treatment of those who merely appear not to be tall enough without a clear medical issue related to growth, especially for boys.
