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

Background: Children's health is shaped by their physical, natural, and socioeconomic environments. The objective of this study is to identify structural urban planning measures that can positively or negatively impact children's health. Specifically, we aim to explore how urban planning elements, such as housing, neighborhoods, play areas, and green spaces, influence children's well-being and health outcomes. Methods: We conducted a scoping review in accordance with the method developed by Arksey and O'Malley, Levac and colleagues' methodology advancement, and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline. We explored eight databases, restricting our search to reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses that report on structural measures aimed at modifying urban planning to promote child health. Results: A total of 41 studies were identified for inclusion in this review. The thematic analysis identified: i) interventions aimed at modifying streets; ii) interventions aimed at modifying play areas; iii) interventions aimed at modifying contact with nature; iv) interventions aimed at modifying deleterious exposures (exposure to tobacco, exposure to school); and v) housing. The second level of analysis enabled us to identify and evaluate the conditions for implementation and effectiveness. Conclusion: The review highlighted measures that are favorable to children's health at the level of neighborhood urban planning and questioned the conditions for implementation in a French context.
