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

objectivesTo investigate risk factors for women with obesity of childbearing age.

methodsA cross-sectional survey of New Zealand women (15-49 years) with measured height and weight was used [unweighted (n = 3625) and weighted analytical sample (n = 1,098,372)] alongside sociodemographic-, behavioural- and environmental-level predictors. Multilevel logistic regression weighted for non-response of height and weight data was used.

resultsMeeting physical activity guidelines (AOR (adjusted odds ratio) 0.66, 95% CI 0.54-0.80), Asian (AOR 0.15, 95% CI 0.10-0.23) and European/other ethnicity (AOR 0.46, 95% CI 0.36-0.58) and an increased availability of public greenspace (Q4 AOR 0.55, 95% CI 0.41-0.75) were related to decreased obesity risk. Older age (45-49 years AOR 3.01, 95% CI 2.17-4.16), Pacific ethnicity (AOR 2.81, 95% CI 1.87-4.22), residing in deprived areas (AOR 1.65, 95% CI 1.16-2.35) or secondary urban areas (AOR 1.49, 95% CI 1.03-2.18) were related to increased obesity risk. When examined by rural/urban classification, private greenspace was only related to increased obesity risk in main urban areas.

conclusionsThis study highlights factors including but not limited to public greenspace, which inform obesity interventions for women of childbearing age in New Zealand.
