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 investigate the effect and safety of extensively hydrolyzed formula (EHF) in preterm infants.

methodsA total of 692 preterm infants between January 2007 and December 2016 were enrolled as subjects. According to the feeding pattern, they were divided into EHF group (327 infants) and standard preterm formula (SPF) group (365 infants). A retrospective analysis was performed for their clinical data during hospitalization, including the incidence of feeding intolerance, time to establish full enteral feeding, time to first excretion of meconium, time to complete excretion of meconium, presence or absence of intestinal infection or neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), serum albumin level within 3 weeks after admission, and time to the appearance of skin jaundice and its duration.

resultsThere were no significant differences between the two groups in the starting time of breastfeeding, time to first excretion of meconium, time to the appearance of skin jaundice, serum albumin level at weeks 1 and 2 after admission, and time to recovery of birth weight (P>0.05). Compared with the SPF group, the EHF group had significantly lower incidence rates of feeding intolerance, intestinal infection, and NEC and a significantly lower positive rate of stool occult blood test (P<0.05), as well as significantly shorter time to complete excretion of meconium, duration to establish full enteral feeding, duration of jaundice, and length of hospital stay (P<0.05). At week 3 after admission, the EHF group had a significantly higher serum albumin level than the SPF group (P<0.05).

conclusionsEHF can reduce the incidence rates of feeding intolerance and NEC in preterm infants, shorten the duration of jaundice, promote defecation, and help them to achieve full enteral feeding early. It has significant advantages over SPF.
