KiGGS Wave 2 cross-sectional study - participant acquisition, response rates and representativeness.
Article in Journal of health monitoring, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 65 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
For the third time, wave 2 of the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS), which is conducted in the context of health monitoring at the Robert Koch Institute, now provides representative cross-sectional data for Germany. Completed in 2017, data for the cross-sectional component of KiGGS Wave 2 was collected in the form of an interview and examination survey. Interview survey data was collected from 15,023 participants, meaning that the required number of participants has been reached. A randomly selected subgroup of 3,567 participants was also examined. The overall response rate was 40.1%. Differences in response rates were registered regarding certain sociodemographic characteristics. Weighting was applied to compensate for differences in willingness to participate related to age, gender, geographic region, nationality and education factors. Weighting ensures that assessments of the health of children and adolescents in Germany are representative for the population. The data serves to estimate prevalence rates and, through comparison with the results from previous survey waves, to analyse trends. A set of measures were taken to recruit a sufficiently large group of participants and ensure that the net sample reflects the composition of the overall population to the highest degree. For future surveys, further measures ought to be taken in order to improve the integration of hard-to-reach subgroups.
