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
Changes in the body mass index (BMI) of children and adolescents have been linked to mobile usage, particularly food applications. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between food application usage and obesity and overweight among adolescent girls. This cross-sectional study was conducted among adolescent girls aged 16-18 years. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire from female high schools in five different regional offices across Riyadh City. The questionnaire included questions regarding demographic data (age and academic level), BMI and behavioural intention (BI) scale comprising three constructs: attitude towards behaviour, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control. Of the included 385 adolescent girls, 36.1% were 17 years old, and 71.4% had normal BMI. The overall mean BI scale score was 65.4 (SD 9.95). No significant differences were observed between overweight or obesity in relation to the overall BI score and its constructs. A high BI score was more associated with participants studying in the east educational office than those who were enrolled in the central educational office. Behavioural intention to use food applications greatly influenced the adolescent age group. Further investigations are necessary to determine the influence of food application services among individuals with high BMI.
