1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: Few reports have investigated the correlation between functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) and the degree of obesity in children and adolescents. Thus, this study aimed to examine the relationship between FGIDs and the degree of obesity in children and adolescents. Methods: Children and adolescents (<19 years old) who had undergone abdominopelvic computed tomography and had been diagnosed with FGIDs from 2015 to 2016 were included in this retrospective case-control study in a ratio of 1:2. Abdominal visceral fat was measured using an image analysis software. Results: The mean age of all 54 FGID patients was 12.9±3.4 years, and the male: female ratio was 1:1.2. We observed no difference in body mass index (BMI) between the FGID and control groups (19.5±4.6 vs. 20.6±4.3 kg/m Conclusion: Our study revealed a difference in the relationship between FGID and the degree of obesity according to sex, which suggests that sex hormones influence the pathogenesis of FGIDs. Multicenter studies with larger cohorts are required to clarify the correlation between FGID subtypes and the degree of obesity.
