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
Correction modelling using reported BMI values has been employed in adolescent and adult populations to improve the accuracy of self-reporting. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of establishing correction modelling for mother-reported child height and weight at 2 years using data from an Australian trial in 2019. Correction modelling for BMI was conducted using mother-reported and objectively measured height and weight of 2-year-olds. Mother-reported height, weight and BMI values of 2-year-old children were adjusted based on objectively measured anthropometric data using linear regression models. 'Direct' and 'indirect' corrections were applied to the correction of BMI values. We defined the direct collection as using corrected BMI values that were predicted directly by the model and indirect correction as using corrected weight and height values to calculate corrected BMI values. Corrected BMI values via the indirect correction showed higher sensitivity or similar specificity in predicting overweight status, compared to the direct correction, and also showed higher agreement with measured values compared to the mother-reported measures. Corrected self-reported measures via an indirect correction had a better accuracy and agreement with the objectively measured data in the BMI values and classification of overweight, compared to the mother-reported values.
