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.
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: Anemia and obesity are significant public health challenges among adolescents, often linked to inadequate nutritional knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Educational interventions targeting these factors may play a crucial role in improving adolescent health outcomes. Objective: To determine the impact of a nutrition education program on the levels of knowledge, attitudes, and dietary practices, anthropometric parameters and hemoglobin in Peruvian adolescents. Methods: A pre-experimental study was conducted among Peruvian adolescents between 12 and 18 years of age from an educational institution located in eastern Lima, Peru. Body mass index/age (BMI/age), waist circumference (WC), hemoglobin (Hb) levels, and a self-reported questionnaire were assessed. A nutrition education intervention was conducted for 16 weeks. Results: After the implementation of the program, a significant improvement in knowledge scores (84.4%, Conclusion: This study showed that nutrition education programs could improve knowledge, attitudes, and dietary practices, BMI/age, WC, and Hb scores in Peruvian adolescents.
