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

objectiveTo assess the regular consumption of soft drinks among Brazilian adolescents according to sociodemographic characteristics, eating habits, and lifestyle.

methodsThis is a cross-sectional study using data from 118,497 adolescents from the 2019 National Survey of School Health (PeNSE), a population survey periodically carried out in Brazil. The prevalence of regular soft drinks consumption was estimated and, using Poisson regression analysis, the association of this consumption with variables related to eating habits and lifestyle (physical and sedentary activities, use of cigarette and alcohol) was verified.

resultsThe frequency of regular soft drinks consumption was 17.2% (95%CI 16.6-17.8%). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed an association between regular soft drinks consumption and: living in the Southeast and Midwest regions (PR=1.49 and PR=1.50), boys (PR=1.22), eating meals while using a screen on five or more days a week (PR=1.20), eating breakfast less than five days a week (PR=1.14), consuming sweets five or more days a week (PR=2.16), and consuming fast food three or more times a week (PR=2.28). Spending more than three hours a day in sedentary activities (PR=1.18) and cigarette use (PR=1.22) and binge drinking (PR=1.21) were also statistically and significantly associated with regular soft drinks consumption.

conclusionAdolescents' regular consumption of soft drinks is associated with the region of residence, sex, and unhealthy eating and lifestyle habits. Interventions to promote the reduction of regular soft drinks consumption among Brazilian adolescents should consider innovative strategies that include comprehensive public policies appropriate to the profile of adolescents.
