Birth weight for gestational age, recovery of growth and anthropometric profile of pre-school children born full term: a follow-up study.

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
introductionBeing born small for gestational age (SGA) implies an increase in the childhood morbidity and mortality rates, in addition to being related to changes in the pattern of growth and body composition, which may be associated with the development of risk factors linked to metabolic diseases. Aim of the study: To describe the development of anthropomorphic indicators of children born at full term, small (SGA) or appropriate for gestational age (AGA), up to the sixth month of life, and again when they reached school-age. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis was a prospective cohort study, with 31 children (19 SGA, and 12 AGA), recruited in public maternity hospitals. Subsequently they were attended at an outpatient clinic on a monthly basis, by a multidisciplinary team in the first year of life. These children were re-evaluated when they reached school-age.
resultsBoth groups showed high percentages of exclusive breastfeeding in the first months of life. Group SGA showed intense early recovery of the growth indicators, characterizing recovery of growth in the first 6 months of life. However, at school-age, they were still smaller, lighter, with a lower quantity of body fat and muscle mass than those born AGA. There was predominance of appropriate anthropometric growth and body composition indicators at school-age, even in Group SGA. Conclusion: At school-age, the children of this study showed no major alterations related to anthropometry.
