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
objectiveTo evaluate the relationship between screen time (ST) and lung function in hospitalized children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF).
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study of 45 children with CF in the 0- to 17-year age bracket admitted to a public hospital in southern Brazil. ST during hospitalization was measured by means of a recall diary. Questionnaires were used in order to collect data on screen use and personal data. Data on lung function, nutrition, bacteriology, and the Shwachman-Kulczycki clinical score were obtained from patient medical records.
resultsOf the study participants, 51.1% were male, with a median age of 9 years, and 80% were White. The mean FEV1 (Z-score) was -2.9 ± 1.9, and FEV1 (in % of predicted) was 63.7 ± 22.3. The median ST was 315 min, and 95.5% of the study participants exceeded the recommended ST. The most prevalent reasons for using electronic devices during hospitalization were boredom and lack of other activities. In a multivariate analysis, ST (the dependent variable) was significantly associated with age (b = 26.591; 95% CI, 14.695-38.487), time spent watching television at home (b = 0.686; 95% CI, 0.304-1.069), and FEV1 Z-score (b = -60.631; 95% CI, -115.399 to -5.864).
conclusionsExcess ST appears to be associated with worse lung function in hospitalized children with CF, as do older age and longer periods of time spent watching television at home.
