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

Adherence to home fortification of foods with multiple micronutrient powders (MNPs) is an essential indicator of effective implementation of MNP programmes. A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the high adherence rate (HAR) to MNPs and further investigate the factors that influence HAR. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CAB Abstracts, MEDLINE (OVID), Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang and VP, from the date of database inception to 9 November 2020. We included peer-reviewed observational studies that investigated adherence to MNPs. Data on the HAR to MNPs and influencing factors on HAR were extracted and then pooled together. A total of 10 studies were included. The pooled HAR to MNPs was 63.28% (51.12%-74.64%). Among HARs, rates were higher in middle-income countries (65.21%) than low-income countries (55.23%). Parental age over 30 years (maternal age OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.08-1.44; paternal age OR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.04-1.32), children aged 18-36 months (OR = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.12-1.88), maternal educational attainment of college or above (OR = 1.38, 95% CI:1.10-1.73), caregiver with the perception that other mothers use MNPs (OR = 1.52, 95% CI:1.19-1.95), caregiver being aware of the importance of iron (OR = 1.42, 95% CI: 1.18-1.71), caregiver having correct knowledge of MNPs (OR = 1.36, 95% CI:1.19-1.57) and caregiver reporting children have no side effects from MNPs (OR = 2.77, 95% CI: 2.46-3.11) were contributing factors to high adherence to MNPs. The overall HAR to MNPs was relatively low; hence, effective and trusted communication channels need to be established, along with more thorough dissemination of the knowledge of MNPs to caregivers, to improve MNPs adherence rates, especially in low-income countries.
