Anthropometry of Kyrgyz children: A study on the effects of age and gender.
Article in Journal of back and musculoskeletal rehabilitation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BackgroundThis study was motivated by the lack of anthropometric data on Kyrgyz children and the need to better understand the effects of these data on child development.ObjectiveThe purpose of this study is to examine the anthropometric characteristics of Kyrgyz boys and girls aged 8 to 10 years in primary education.MethodsThe research was conducted across 55 primary schools in the Bishkek and Chüy regions of Kyrgyzstan. Participants included 8-year-olds (n=1215), 9-year-olds (n=1211), and 10-year-olds (n=879), both male and female. Measurements of height, body mass, diameter and circumference were taken. The data obtained were evaluated using SPSS 25 program. Comparisons according to age groups were made by ANOVA analysis. P<0.001 was accepted as significance level.ResultsStatistically significant differences were identified in terms of height and body mass across all age groups for both boys and girls (p<0.05). Additionally, significant differences were found across all age groups for both boys and girls in wrist, ankle, calf, biceps extension and flexion, chest, waist, hip, neck, and shoulder circumferences, as well as arm span and arm length (p<0.001). Furthermore, statistically significant differences were observed in shoulder, chest, patella, ankle, humerus elbow, femur knee, and chest depth diameters across all age groups for both boys and girls (p<0.001).ConclusionAs a result, it can be said that there is a proportional increase in height, body mass, circumference and diameter characteristics parallel to growth in both girls and boys in parallel with age.
