1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Post-partum depression (PPD) is a serious mental health problem, which can impair maternal behaviours and adversely affect the cognitive, emotional and behavioural development of children. This study aims to explore the impact of maternal depressive symptoms at 3 months post-partum (baseline) on child diet at 18 months of age (follow-up). This study used longitudinal data from 263 first-time mothers from the Melbourne Infant Feeding, Activity and Nutrition Trial (InFANT) Extend. Women self-reported depressive symptoms (10-item Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale [CES-D]) and child diet (fruits, vegetables and discretionary foods). Multiple linear regression analyses were used to explore the relationship between maternal depressive symptoms at baseline and child fruit and vegetable intake and discretionary food intake (g day
