Birth weight was associated positively with gluteofemoral fat mass and inversely with 2-h postglucose insulin concentrations, a marker of insulin resistance, in young normal-weight Japanese women.

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
Introduction: We tested whether birth weight might be associated with gluteofemoral fat mass and insulin sensitivity later in life. Materials and methods: Body size trajectory since birth, body composition at age 20, and markers of insulin resistance were measured in 316 Japanese women. A subset of 148 women underwent a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to identify most important determinants of birth weight. Results: Birth weight was correlated positively with height and weight at age 12, 15, and 20 years (all Conclusions: Birth weight was associated positively with gluteofemoral fat mass and inversely with 2-h postglucose insulin concentrations, a marker of insulin resistance.
