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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Indonesia reduced the prevalence of stunting from 37.6% in 2013 to 21.6% in 2022; however, it remains above the 2024 target of 14%. In Central Java, the prevalence is 20.7%, underscoring the need for targeted interventions. This study examined the determinants of stunting in children in Central Java. Methods: A matched case-control study was conducted in June-July 2024 across selected districts. A total of 138 children aged 6 to 59 months were included in the study. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and medical records. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used for bivariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Stunted children more often had pulmonary infections (87.5%), low birth weight (84.6%), and a history of hospitalization (53.5%). Maternal postpartum depression (82.4%) and low education levels were also significant. Hospitalization (OR 5.985, Conclusion: Integrated strategies addressing healthcare, maternal mental health, and nutrition are essential for reducing stunting.
