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

Osteoporosis in adulthood often originates in early life, and some forms can be prevented through appropriate attention to bone health during the neonatal period and childhood, particularly in cases involving preterm infants or with intrauterine growth restriction. PURPOSE: To test the association of gestational age and intrauterine growth with bone mass in adolescents.

methodsWith data from the 2004 Pelotas Birth Cohort, the outcomes density (aBMD) and content (BMC) were obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, measured at 15 years. The exposures of interest were: prematurity (< 37 weeks of gestation), gestational age (≤ 36, 37-41, and ≥ 42 weeks) and intrauterine growth (small - SGA, appropriate - AGA or large for gestational age - LGA). Linear regression stratified by sex was run. Exclusive breastfeeding at 3 months was tested as an effect modifier.

resultsOne thousand four hundred ninety-four participants were included. In full adjusted model, including adolescent's height, preterm females had lower aBMD femoral neck than the full-term (β - 0.04 g/cm

conclusionEven the adolescence phase can be impaired due to premature birth and intrauterine growth restriction.
