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

Background: The prevalence of psychological symptoms in adolescents has been increasing and has become an important public health issue of concern to countries around the world. However, no studies have been conducted on the association between sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption, muscle strength, and psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents. The present study may provide theoretical support and assistance for the prevention and intervention of psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents. Methods: In this study, 42,832 adolescents aged 12-17 years in mainland China were assessed cross-sectionally for SSB consumption, standing long jump reflecting muscle strength, psychological symptoms, and related covariates using a three-stage stratified whole-cluster random sampling method. The methods of univariate analysis, logistic regression analysis, and binary Logistic regression analysis with a generalized linear model were used for the analysis. Results: The prevalence of psychological symptoms among Chinese adolescents aged 12-17 years was 21.2%; the prevalence of boys (22.0%) was higher than that of girls (20.3%), and the difference was statistically significant ( Conclusion: There is an association between SSB consumption, muscle strength, and psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents. Effective reduction of SSB consumption and improvement of muscle strength may be an effective way to reduce psychological symptoms. The effects of SSB consumption and muscle strength should be emphasized in the prevention and intervention of adolescents' psychological symptoms in the future.
