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

objectiveTo provide an overview of the 2011 edition of the Rourke Baby Record (RBR), which includes developments on its website and new related initiatives that incorporate recent literature on preventive health care for children aged 0 to 5 years. QUALITY OF EVIDENCE: As in past RBR editions, recommendations are identified as supported by good, fair, or consensus evidence, according to the classifications adopted by the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care in 2011. MAIN MESSAGE: New information and recommendations are given for growth monitoring, nutrition, physical examination maneuvers, and immunizations for varicella, pneumococcus, meningococcus, and rotavirus. There is now good evidence for converting to the World Health Organization growth charts adapted for Canada, universal newborn hearing screening, and use of immunization pain reduction strategies. Anticipatory guidance has been updated for safe sleeping, health supervision of foster children, fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, lead and anemia screening risk factors, and dental care and oral health. New RBR website items include a parent resources section, modifications for unique populations such as those living in Nunavut, a version of the RBR that highlights what has changed from the 2009 version for quick viewing, and an expansion of the "Explore the RBR" feature with associated links to relevant information. A one-visit-per-page format is now available. The 2011 RBR is endorsed by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Canadian Paediatric Society, and is available in English and French in national and Ontario versions.

conclusionThe 2011 RBR is an updated, evidence-based, practical knowledge translation tool for preventive health care for infants from birth to age 5 years that includes extensive Web-based resources for health care professionals, students, residents, and parents.
