Food Habits and Lifestyle in Hyperphenylalaninemia Patients: Should These Be Monitored?
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Studies on Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) patients are scarce and primarily focused on neurocognitive outcomes compared to PKU patients. In this study, we characterized the food habits and lifestyle of HPA patients compared with healthy peers. We performed a cross-sectional survey of a cohort of 30 patients (13 males, median age/range: 7.9; 2.2-16.7 years) and 28 controls (8 males, median age/range: 7.9; 2.1-16.7 years). Anthropometric parameters, food and nutrient intakes, and level of physical activity were assessed. Food neophobia, eating disorders, and body image perception was investigated by specific tests. Patients showed greater selectivity in the choice of foods than controls, preferring products with lower protein content (
