The Impact of Obesity Assessed by Different Criteria on the Metabolic Parameters in Children and Adolescents in Georgia.
Article in Global pediatric health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The aim of our study was comparative analysis of anthropometric characteristics in children and adolescents significantly correlated with the parameters of metabolic syndrome. The study group is consisted of 113 children and adolescents (study group) with excessive body weight and obesity (group 1-BMI percentile; group 2-waist circumference; group 3-waist to height ratio). The control group consisted of 113 children and adolescents without. Comparative analysis of obtained data have been carried out by multiple regression analysis. BMI percentile is more an indicator of a generalized obesity; WC and WHR percentiles better describe visceral obesity and metabolic disorders-insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. However, the WHR Percentile may be a more useful tool. To assess obesity in children and adolescents, it is necessary to evaluate together BMI, WC, and WHR percentiles. It can be also concluded that these findings indicate the need to continue research in this direction.
