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.

Abstract

objectiveTo determine if the choice of enteral feeds after gastroschisis repair relates to the time to achieve full feeds and time to discharge. STUDY

designA retrospective study of infants with gastroschisis from 2000 to 2010 examined demographics, days at closure, days at initiation of feeds, days to full feeds, time to discharge and length of stay.

resultNinety infants were identified, 22 received (human milk) HM exclusively, 15 were fed >50% HM, 16 were fed <50% HM and 26 were fed only cow milk-based formulas. Infants fed exclusively HM had significantly shorter times to full enteral feedings (median 5 days versus 7 days, P=0.03). The time from initiation of feedings to hospital discharge, which accounts for initiation age, significantly favored the exclusively HM-fed infants (median 7 days versus 10 days, P=0.01).

conclusionExclusive HM feeding after gastroschisis repair decreases time to achieve full enteral feeds and time to discharge.
