Early adiposity rebound: predictors and outcomes.
Review in Italian journal of pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Adiposity rebound (AR) refers to the second rise of the body mass index (BMI) curve that usually occurs between six and eight years of age. AR timing has a significant impact on patients' health: early AR (EAR), usually before the age of five, is considered to be the earliest indicator of obesity and its related health conditions later in life. Many studies have evaluated factors that can be predictors of EAR, and identified low birth weight and gestational weight gain as novel predictors of EAR, highlighting the role of the intrauterine environment in the kinetics of adiposity. Furthermore, children with breastfeeding longer than 4 months have been found to be less likely to have an EAR, whereas children born to advanced-age mothers, high maternal BMI had a higher risk of having an EAR. Some differences were found in the timing of AR in boys and girls, with girls being more likely to have EAR. The aim of this review is to answer the following three questions: 1) Which are the prenatal and perinatal factors associated with increased risk of EAR? Is gender one of these? 2) Which are the outcomes of EAR in childhood and in adulthood? 3) Which measures can be taken in order to prevent premature AR?
