Secular Trends in Obesity and Serum Lipid Values among Children in Oita City, Japan, during a 27-Year Period.
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
aimsWe assessed 27-year trends in obesity and blood lipid levels of 10-year-old children to estimate the risk of metabolic syndrome in adulthood.
methodsBased on a screening program for lifestyle-related diseases in school children in Oita City, Japan, we evaluated secular trends in height, weight, percentage of overweight (POW), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), and non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C) of fifth graders (median age: 10.8 years) in Oita City from 1991 to 2017. We focused on the secular trend in the percentage of children with inappropriate serum levels of each lipid. We also evaluated the long-term trends in the 95
resultsA total of 58,699 boys and 56,864 girls were evaluated during the study period. The percentage of children with severe obesity (POW-50) consistently increased during these years, and the 95
conclusionThe number of children with severe obesity increased, and obese children had higher percentages of inappropriate lipid levels than non-obese children. The rate of dyslipidemia with low HDL levels gradually increased in all children in Oita City, Japan, over the past 27 years.
