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: Malnutrition among women in the reproductive age group is a significant risk factor for low birth weight and infant mortality rates. Recent statistics show that undernutrition and overnutrition are double the burden in many developing countries. Aim: To assess the nutritional status and identify risk factors of malnutrition among rural women in the reproductive age group, Wayanad District, Kerala. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with women aged 18 years to 49 years. A house-to-house survey was done in five villages, covering 56 participants from each village. Results: About 50.7% of women were 25-40 years old. A significant proportion of 60% was overweight or obese, with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 26.34. Around 43.93% had moderate and 20.36% had high health risk waist - hip ratio (WHR). The mean waist circumference was 81.52. Employment (AOR 2.84, 95% CI 1.10 to 15.19, Conclusion: The number of overweight and obese individuals with moderate to high-risk WHR was substantially higher in this study. An unbalanced, unhealthy diet, along with physical inactivity, contributes to the increase in the number of overweight individuals and central obesity.
