The Growth and Development Unit. A proposed approach for enhancing infant neurodevelopment and family-centered care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Review 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 9 papers.
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
There is growing evidence that the neurosensory and social environment of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) has lasting effects on the neurodevelopment of the high-risk hospitalized infant. Thus, many NICUs are transitioning from traditional, medical healing approaches to enhanced family-centered developmental care approaches with the aim of improving infant outcomes and parental mental health. This commentary describes a transdisciplinary neurodevelopmental program based on key principles and recommendations from current and evolving evidence-based care practice guidelines. This clinical initiative, known as the Growth and Development Unit (GDU), was developed within the context of a 66-bed level III NICU. The process of program inception, key elements of program development, as well as program strengths and challenges are discussed.
