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

Antibiotic use in early life is associated with autoimmune diseases like Type 1 diabetes (T1D), but evidence is inconsistent. We examined associations of prenatal and early-childhood (0-5 years) antibiotic use and T1D in New Zealand, a country with high antibiotic consumption. Using linked data, we identified antibiotic use during pregnancy and the first 5 years for all children born between 2005 and 2010 (
