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: This study aimed to evaluate the association of family functioning (FF), parenting knowledge (PK), parenting behaviors (PBs), and family characteristics (FCs) with child growth. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a community in Southern Thailand. Parents or childcare providers (CPs) who had cared for the children aged 2-6 years for ≥ 6 months were invited to join the study voluntarily. FF, PK, PBs, and FCs were evaluated. Their associations with child growth were assessed using multiple logistic regression, adjusting for all variables in the R program ( Results: A total of 102 parents or CPs who consented to participate were enrolled. Low FF score (adjusted odds ratio (adj OR) = 5.11 (1.57,18.60), Conclusion: Child growth was significantly affected by the integrative effects of parental and familial factors, not limited to FF.
