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

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common pregnancy complication with potential short- and long-term adverse consequences for both mothers and fetuses. It is unclear whether GDM affects linear growth in the offspring; research data are limited and inconsistent. Methods: In a prospective birth cohort in Shanghai (n=2055 children; 369 born to mothers with GDM). We sought to evaluate the impact of GDM on longitudinal linear growth in early childhood. Length/height was measured in children at birth, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1, 2 and 4 years of age. Multivariate linear regression and generalized estimating equation models were employed to assess the impact of GDM on length/height for age Z score (LAZ/HAZ). Results: Average birth length was similar in infants of GDM Discussion: GDM was associated with impaired longitudinal linear growth in early childhood. Further studies are warranted to understand the long-term impact on stature and health.
