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
backgroundTelenutrition, using telehealth technologies for remote nutritional care, has proven effective in primary care. Nutritional deficiencies constitute a global health burden, characterized by chronic undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies, especially in adolescent girls in impoverished nations such as Bangladesh. Telenutrition, which uses digital technologies to provide remote nutritional treatment, is a promising strategy to decrease this burden. This study aims to determine the impact of telenutrition education on improving nutritional awareness, attitude, and dietary diversity among school going adolescent girls in rural Bangladesh. MATERIALS AND
methodsA school-based quasi-experimental study was conducted among 190 adolescent girls (95 intervention, 95 control) from two higher secondary schools in Sakhipur, Bangladesh. Schools were allocated into intervention and control groups using a coin toss method to reduce selection bias and to mitigate the risk of contamination of health education information among students within the same school. Interviewers used structured questionnaires to gather baseline data on socio-demographic traits, nutrition-related knowledge, attitudes, and practices, dietary diversity, food hygiene, sanitation, and menstrual hygiene. The intervention group received six months of nutrition-focused education, covered video sessions, text messages, and follow-up phone calls, while the control group received no intervention. The primary outcome of this study is changes in nutritional awareness, attitudes, and practice scores among adolescents. Additionally, secondary outcomes include improvements in dietary diversity and changes in BMI, hip-waist circumference, and MUAC that will be compared across groups over time. The effects of the intervention will be evaluated over time using mixed-effects models in STATA 18.5.
resultsData analysis will commence after implementation collection, with findings prepared for publication.
conclusionTelenutrition education is expected to effectively enhance knowledge and promote healthy behaviors among adolescent girls. Digital health programs, policy-driven approaches, and school-based nutrition education are essential for improving nutritional awareness.
