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
We described the nutritional content of vitamin and mineral dietary supplements for children on the Peruvian market and their compliance to the recommended dietary intake. A cross-sectional study was carried out with the information declared on the packaging of 34 products sold in pharmacies during 2022. The daily doses of each micronutrient were calculated according to the manufacturer's instructions; we also estimated the compliance with the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) and the tolerable upper intake level (UL) by age group. The most common micronutrients were vitamins C (n=23), D (n=22), A (n=16), zinc (n=15) and B6 (n=14). In all groups, vitamin D, thiamine, riboflavin, folate, vitamin B12 and vitamin C exceeded the RDA. Zinc and copper also exceeded the recommendations in some groups. Vitamin A and folate most frequently exceeded the UL. Our findings highlight the need for greater health surveillance.
