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

backgroundNon-communicable diseases in adulthood are reported to be strongly associated with adolescent obesity. The present study aimed to assess the effect of a comprehensive lifestyle modification intervention on the anthropometric indices, dietary intake, and physical activity of adolescent boys with overweight.

methodsThis pragmatic trial was conducted on 126 adolescent boys with overweight. A comprehensive school-based intervention was carried out at two levels for four months: at the school level based on the Ottawa Charter framework and at the personal level including individualized diet and physical activity.

resultsThe percentage of mean difference of BMI and BF loss in the intervention group were 1.20% (P < 0.05) and 6.41% (P < 0.01), respectively. The intervention group had a lower intake of calorie (2350 ± 861 vs. 2634 ± 917 kcal/d), carbohydrate (255.68 ± 41 vs. 286.97 + 47 g/d), and fat (112.67 ± 78 vs. 217.72 ± 86 g/d) after the intervention compared to the control group (All P < 0.05). The intervention resulted in a significant increase in physical activity parameters including distance (3501 ± 287 vs. 614 ± 56 m/d), duration (203 ± 35 vs. 72 ± 10 min/d), and calorie expenditure (359.24 ± 62.4 vs. 46.74 ± 7.5 kcal/d) in the intervention group compared to the control group (P < 0.01).

conclusionA comprehensive lifestyle modification intervention which covers both school and individual levels may positively influence BMI, body fat, calorie intake, and distance and duration of physical activity in adolescents. Thus, adopting multifaceted strategies using the Ottawa Charter framework may be considered as an effective approach to managing obesity in adolescents.
