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
Objective: Cross-cultural adaptation into Brazilian Portuguese of the five-stage Edmonton Obesity Staging System (EOSS), which classifies the severity of obesity according to morbidities and health risks. Methods: The following steps were taken: (1) translation and synthesis; (2) semantic analysis by a committee of subject experts and linguists; (3) construction of complementary content and validation by a panel of experts, in two rounds; (4) back-translation and submission to the original author; (5) semantic evaluation by health professionals; and (6) pre-testing on a sample of people with obesity. Semantic analysis and complementary content validation were verified by 80% minimum concordance. Results: The tool maintained semantic, idiomatic, conceptual, and cultural equivalence with the original version. The semantic evaluation showed adequate understanding by the target audience, with over 80% concordance. Conclusion: The version of the EOSS adapted for Brazil has proved to be a robust and useful tool for assessing obesity in the Brazilian context. It meets rigorous methodological standards, indicating its use in research and clinical practice as an important tool for assessing people with obesity.
