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.

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.

Abstract

introductionChildhood obesity has surged globally, leading to various metabolic comorbidities and increased cardiovascular risks. Early intervention in lifestyle and feeding practices during infancy is crucial to mitigate these risks. This study evaluates the efficacy of a mobile web app-based intervention tool, named the Feeding, Lifestyle, Activity Goals (FLAGs) to promote healthier eating behaviours and lifestyle habits in infants from birth to 12 months. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This two-arm randomised controlled trial will enrol 220 caregiver-infant pairs per arm at KK Women's and Children's Hospital, Singapore, with recruitment expected from January to December 2025. Eligible participants include women at ≥34 weeks' gestation or up to 3 days post delivery with pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity (body mass index (BMI) >23 kg/m ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval has been obtained from the SingHealth Centralised Institutional Review Board (Ref: 2024/3224). Written informed consent will be obtained from all participants. Study findings will be disseminated via peer-reviewed publications and academic conferences, with de-identified data available on reasonable request. This trial is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (ID: NCT06457750). TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06457750.
