Spatial clustering patterns of child weight status in a southeastern US county.
Article in Applied geography (Sevenoaks, England), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Youth obesity is a major public health concern due to associated physical, social, and psychological health consequences. While rates and disparities of youth obesity levels are known, less research has explored spatial clustering patterns, associated correlates of spatial clustering, comparing patterns in urban and rural areas. Therefore, this study 1) examined spatial clustering of youth weight status, 2) investigated sociodemographic correlates of spatial clustering patterns, and 3) explored spatial patterns by level of urbanization. This study occurred in a southeastern US county (pop:474,266) in 2013. Trained physical education teachers collected height and weight for all 3
