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.

Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to describe the variables and to show the association of factors.
resultsA total of 450 children participated in the study. The mean age of the study participants was 13.67. More than 38% of the study participants were of age below the mean age. The majority of 61.3% of the study population were living with their parents. Factors associated with child sexual abuse were sex (AOR = 2.92; 95% CI; 1.84,4.63), alcohol intake (AOR = 2.53; 95% CI; 1.461, 4.36), chewing chat (AOR = 3.84; 95% CI; 1.68, 8.75), cigarette smoking (AOR = 3.83; 95% CI; 1.67-8.81), age (AOR = 4.38 (95% CI: 2.90, 6.62), educational level (AOR = 0.64 (95% CI: 0.44, 0.93), living conditions (AOR = 4.44; 95%CI: 0.73, 26.87), and conflict between parents AOR = 2.50 (95% CI: 1.43, 4.35).
