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

Livestock-derived animal source foods (ASF) provide macro and micronutrients required for child growth and development, yet are under-consumed in many parts of the world where undernutrition persists. Using a modified conceptual framework of the social determinants of health, this study investigates the interrelationship between livestock ownership, ASF consumption, and child undernutrition (wasting, stunting, and underweight) in Rwanda. Using Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data from 3438 children aged 6-59 months and employing a multilevel mixed effects model, we investigate these interrelationships nationally, then focus on the Eastern Province and Nyagatare district, an area of high livestock production. Findings reveal that livestock ownership is significantly negatively associated with stunting (
