The Importance of Hydration in Body Composition Assessment in Children Aged 6-16 Years.

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
Body composition is associated with many noncommunicable diseases. The accuracy of many simple techniques used for the assessment of body composition is influenced by the fact that they do not take into account tissue hydration and this can be particularly problematic in paediatric populations. The aims of this study were: (1) to assess the agreement of two dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) systems for determining total and regional (arms, legs, trunk) fat, lean, and bone mass and (2) to compare lean soft tissue (LST) hydration correction methods in children. One hundred and twenty four healthy children aged between 6 and 16 years old underwent DXA scans using 2 GE healthcare Lunar systems (iDXA and Prodigy). Tissue hydration was either calculated by dividing total body water (TBW), by 4-component model derived fat free mass (HFFM
