Establishing Localized Growth Velocity Standards for Children: A Study from Isfahan.
Article in Advanced biomedical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Monitoring children's growth is crucial for assessing health status and detecting growth failure. This study aims to establish local growth velocity standards for children in Isfahan from birth to 3 years, based on weight, length, and head circumference measurements from 2006 to 2016. Materials and Methods: We conducted a longitudinal cohort study involving 616 healthy children (300 males and 316 females) born in Isfahan, tracked from birth until 3 years of age. Growth measurements were taken at birth and 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, and 36 months. We employed the Lambda-Mu-Sigma (LMS) method to generate percentiles of growth velocity. Results: This study successfully established localized growth velocity percentile charts for weight, length, and head circumference in children aged 0 to 3 years in Isfahan. Growth velocity percentiles (5 Conclusions: This study provides the first local growth velocity standards for children in Isfahan. Our findings underscore the necessity for regular updates to these standards to reflect changes in health and nutrition. Future studies should include a more comprehensive sampling approach to enhance the representativeness of the results.
