Child Feeding Practice and Primary Health Care as Major Correlates of Stunting and Underweight among 6- to 23-Month-Old Infants and Young Children in Food-Insecure Households in Ethiopia.
Article in Current developments in nutrition, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundChild undernutrition is a major public health problem in Ethiopia. Stunting is highest in food-insecure areas and insufficient evidence may impair the design of suitable interventions.
objectivesThis study aimed to identify key factors contributing to undernutrition among 6- to 23-mo-old children.
methodsA community-based cross-sectional study in food-insecure areas of Amhara and Oromia regions in April-June, 2018, enrolled 464 mother-child dyads. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted.
resultsThe prevalence of stunting (43.1%), wasting (12.3%), and underweight (27.3%) were high. Factors significantly associated with both stunting and underweight were child age of 12-23 mo (vs 6-11 mo), female, more siblings, lack of zinc supplement for diarrhea, inadequate diet diversity, and lack of iodized salt in complementary food.
