Feeding during transfusion and the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 evaluate the effect of withholding feeds during transfusion on transfusion associated acute gut injury (TRAGI). STUDY
designData were collected on 125 preterm infants before and after the practice of withholding feeds for 12-24 h during transfusion was instituted. Logistic regression was used to examine effects of withholding feeds on TRAGI rates.
resultsA total of 19 (15%) infants developed NEC; 6/19 (32%) had TRAGI. Postnatal hydrocortisone use was associated with TRAGI (OR 8.97; 95% CI 1.17-68.46, p = 0.034). There was no difference in NEC rates (15.8 vs. 14.7%) and the proportions (22.2 vs. 40%) of TRAGI in the two time periods before and after instituting the standardized feeding regimen and practice of holding feeds during transfusion.
conclusionNo significant decrease was noted in the rates of TRAGI after feeds were withheld during transfusion. Further studies are warranted to explore the relationship between feeds during transfusion and NEC.
