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
objectiveMalnutrition is an emerging health problem that has challenged healthcare authorities worldwide. This study aims to determine anthropometric values and the nutritional status of Indonesian school adolescents.
methodsIn total, 510 students (288 girls and 222 boys) studying at Darul Ihsan Islamic Boarding School Banda Aceh participated in this cross-sectional study. All participants were examined for weight, height, and body mass index (BMI). The BMI category was classified using BMI criteria for the Asia-Pacific population. For data analysis, a descriptive analysis, chi-square (
resultsThe rate of malnutrition among school adolescents in Banda Aceh was underweight 36.67% (girls = 47.6% and boys = 52.4%) and overweight/obesity 21.96% (girls = 60.66% and boys = 39.33%). There was a significant difference in the number of overweight girls and boys: 127 (60.2%) and 84 (39.8%) p = 0.007, respectively. Obesity I was more common among girls than boys: (31; 66%) versus (16; 34%),
conclusionsThis study reports multiple malnutrition problems in adolescent schools in Banda Aceh, namely being underweight, overweight, and obesity. This calls for urgent attention by healthcare authorities to initiate public awareness campaigns to curtail malnutrition.
