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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundSigns of feeding intolerance are common in formula-fed infants. We evaluated the clinical response to a partially hydrolyzed 100% whey protein formula with high

methodsIn a double-blind, parallel-group trial in 6 Asian study centers, exclusively formula-fed infants aged 30 to 90 days, whose parents reported fussiness-crying for ≥2 hours/day plus gassiness and/or stooling difficulty, and intended to switch formula, were randomly assigned to FA (n = 130) or FB (n = 129) for 14 days. Primary endpoint was daily duration of fussiness-crying. Secondary endpoints included gassiness, spitting-up, vomiting, sleep pattern, Infant Gastrointestinal Symptom Questionnaire (IGSQ) Index, infant temperament and maternal anxiety.

resultsMean ± SE minutes/day of fussiness-crying in the 256 analyzed infants (FA, n = 127 and FB, n = 129) substantially decreased from baseline to study end in FA (291 ± 14 to 140 ± 8; -52%,

conclusionSwitching from standard, full-lactose, intact whey/casein infant formulas to either study formula resulted in an improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms and associated behaviors in infants with signs of feeding intolerance.
