Time to relapse of severe acute malnutrition and risk factors among under-five children treated in the health posts of Hadiya Zone, Southern Ethiopia.

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
Relapse/repeated episodes are defined as the admission of a child with a diagnosis of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) after being discharged with a status of recovery. However, there is a lack of study that documented the time to relapse of SAM and its risk factors. The present study aimed to identify the time of relapse and its risk factor among under-five children discharged after undergoing treatment for SAM in health facilities of Hadiya Zone, South Ethiopia. An institution-based retrospective cohort study was carried out in the Hadiya Zone of Southern Ethiopia among under-five children. Data were collected from 760 cards of severe acute malnourished children over the past 5 years spanning from 2014/15 to 2019/20. Both first admission and relapse data were abstracted from the records of the SAM children from 1 August to 30 August 2020 and cards of children that were admitted to program by transferee with complete records were included. After checking all the assumptions, multivariable Cox Proportional Hazards model was fitted to isolate independent determinants of time to cure. All tests were two-sided and statistical significance at
