Analytical parameters to check association between load carriage system and bag packs-influenced musculoskeletal complications among school going students: a scoping review.
Article in Physical activity and nutrition, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the correlation between load-carriage systems and backpacks on musculoskeletal complications among school-going students. Additionally, the purpose was to identify research gaps and provide recommendations for future research.
methodsTo conduct this study, we conducted a thorough search of five databases for literature published between January 2010 and December 2022. Our focus was on original published articles that reported musculoskeletal complications using analytical parameters or outcome measures among school-going students. Two reviewers independently extracted data for eligibility. The studies selected for the analysis focused on musculoskeletal complications and the outcome measures to report these complications.
resultsA total of 3541 titles were screened; of which, 18 observational studies were included. The musculoskeletal complications identified in these studies included lower back, shoulder, and neck pain and disturbed posture. Overall, the quality of the reporting in these studies was deemed satisfactory.
conclusionOur analysis revealed that pain and postural abnormalities were the most frequently reported complications. Hence, we recommend that future studies incorporate multiple evaluations rather than concentrating on a single symptom.
