Diagnostic utility of impedance-pH monitoring in infants of diabetic mothers with oral feeding difficulties.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo determine the diagnostic utility of impedance-pH monitoring in infants of diabetic mothers (IDM) with oral feeding difficulties. STUDY
designRetrospective review of a consecutive sample of 50 IDM who had impedance-pH monitoring for objective gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) diagnosis. Acid reflux index (ARI) ≥ 7 was considered pathological (ARI+).
resultsImpedance-pH monitoring was performed at 42.1-week postmenstrual age. Twenty infants (40%) with ARI+ compared to 30 with ARI < 7 (ARI-). ARI+ had lower weight at study vs. ARI- (p < 0.05). ARI+ had significantly higher reflux parameters but had similar symptom burden and symptom-association scores vs. ARI-. All ARI+ received proton-pump inhibitors (PPI) vs. 7 (23.3%) in ARI- (p < 0.05), but oral feeding outcomes, gastrostomy rate, growth, and hospital length of stay were similar in both groups.
conclusionsThe diagnostic yield of impedance-pH monitoring in IDM is about 40%. However, GERD diagnosis or treatment with PPI did not modify short-term clinical outcomes.
