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

Importance: Malnutrition is highly prevalent in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and adversely affects rehabilitation outcomes. Preterm birth is a major risk factor for CP, yet the relationship between functional status and malnutrition in preterm children with CP remains unclear. Objective: To investigate the effect of gestational age on the association between nutritional status and function levels in children with CP. Methods: This study included 575 children with CP enrolled between July 2020 and December 2021. Participants were stratified into four groups by gestational age at birth: <28, 28-32, 33-36, and ≥37 weeks. Nutritional status was assessed using weight-for-age, weight-for-height, height-for-age, and body mass index-for-age Results: Of the 575 children, 49.0% were born preterm, and 40.3% were categorized as undernutrition. Nutritional status was significantly correlated with gestational age (Kendall's Interpretation: Nutritional status in preterm children with CP, particularly those born before 32 weeks of gestation, correlates significantly with motor function, feeding ability, and daily living skills. These findings may inform the development of individualized rehabilitation strategies for this high-risk population.
