1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveRestaurants may be important settings for interventions to reduce children's energy intake. The objective of this study was to test the impact of a parent-focused social marketing campaign to promote healthy children's meals on calories ordered and consumed by children at quick-service restaurants (QSR).

designUsing a repeated cross-sectional study design, two urban communities were randomised to intervention (IN)

settingData were collected in 2016 at QSR located within the communities pre- and post-IN and analysed in 2017.

participantsParents (

resultsCalories ordered did not differ significantly between the IN and C conditions (change

conclusionThe campaign did not significantly reduce children's QSR calories ordered or consumed. However, a quantitatively important mean reduction in calories was suggested among the priority audience, indicating potential for community-wide promotion of healthful children's meals.
