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

The study was conducted prospectively on 107 children (74 boys). Eighty-three children were born at term (39 ± 1), 24 were born prematurely (33 ± 4). The study included the qualitative assessment at three months of age, eye contact and traction response assessment, and the quantitative assessment at 3, 9, and 16 months of age. The timely achievement of crawling and sitting down depended on the same qualitative characteristics at three months of age: hands and lower limbs and on the segmentally extended spine and shoulder blades. Social walking was influenced by the qualitative assessment of the position of the lower limbs at three months of age. The eye contact substantially impacted walking; the correct traction test moderately impacted crawling and sitting down. The qualitative assessment at three months is highly predictive for crawling and sitting down at nine months and social walking at 16 months. The correct traction test appears to predict crawling and sitting down, while eye contact is essential for social walking.
