Weight among children born 2005-2011 in Nuuk at the time of school entry.
Observational study in International journal of circumpolar health, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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

Study method was an observational study based on data from the electronic medical records (EMR). All children born between 2005-2011 with an address in Nuuk, and registered weight and height were included. For children born in 2011 two study populations were used: children living in Nuuk, and children living outside Nuuk. Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated. Atotal of 1,616 children born in 2005-2011, with address in Nuuk between 2011-2017 were identified. 78% were included (
