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

aimLimited information on early risk factors of Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) exists, especially in term-born children. We examined possible causal effects of early risk factors on DCD in predominantly term-born children.

methodsAn add-on study to the Dutch Lifelines Cohort was performed in 2017. All 5-to-12-year-olds and their parents were included (n = 5479). Children were identified as at risk for DCD when the Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire 2007 indicated suspicion of DCD, and as having probable DCD when another questionnaire, the DCD Daily Questionnaire, also suggested DCD. Causal graphs and multiple logistic regression models were used, including covariates sex, preterm birth (birth < 37 weeks), maternal education, parental subfertility, maternal smoking, and neonatal admission to the paediatric ward.

results5479 children were identified; the response rate was 34% (n = 1856). 1722 children (50% male, 50% female sex; mean age 8.6 years) remained after exclusion for missing data. The prevalence of at risk for DCD and probable DCD was 13.0% (n = 223) and 5.9% (n = 100), respectively. Only male sex and neonatal admission to the paediatric ward had a direct causal effect on at risk for DCD and probable DCD.

conclusionIn the large Lifelines population, only male sex and neonatal admission were risk factors for DCD.
