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

Objective: To assess the nationwide prevalence and factors of unhealthy food consumption (UFC) among young children (6-23 months) in Somaliland. Introduction: Rising availability of unhealthy foods and poor healthcare access in Somaliland threatens infants and young children with serious health risks like overweight, obesity, and non-communicable diseases, requiring urgent nutritional attention. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis used 2020 SDHS data (n = 5263). UFC was defined by WHO IYCF indicators. Multivariable logistic regression reported AORs and 95% CIs. Results: UFC was associated with a unique nutrition transition. Highest wealth quintile children had greater odds (AOR = 3.87, Conclusion: This study provides critical evidence of wealth-driven UFC and protective regional/healthcare factors. Findings highlight the urgent need for targeted interventions leveraging antenatal care to improve child nutrition in Somaliland.
