Central adiposity increases the odds for plasma folate deficiency among Chinese women of reproductive age.

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
Objective: To explore the association between adiposity and plasma folate deficiency odds among women of reproductive age in China. Methods: A cross-sectional survey on nutritional status among women of reproductive aged 18-30 years in 2005-2006 in China was conducted. General adiposity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥24 kg/m Results: A total of 3,076 women of reproductive age were included in the final analysis. Compared to women with normal BMI and WC, women with both general and central adiposity had the highest odds for plasma folate deficiency (OR = 3.107, 95% CI: 1.819-5.307). Women with exclusively central adiposity had excess odds for plasma folate deficiency (WC > 80 cm, BMI <24 kg/m Conclusions: Women with central adiposity in normal weight have higher odds for plasma folate deficiency than those with general obesity only. Early screening for central adiposity among women of reproductive age would be meaningful to prevent folate deficiency and improve life-cycle health.
