Breast milk stem cells: Are they magic bullets in neonatology?
Review in Turkish archives of pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Each mammal produces milk specific to its newborn that meets all nutritional needs. Breast milk is not only a secretory product but is also a complex liquid containing several components that provide enteral nutrition. The stage of lactation, the fullness of the breast, the feeding of the baby, and the health of the mother during the breastfeeding period cause differences in the composition of breast milk. Although the positive effects of breast milk on the physical and intellectual development of a child in the short and long term have been known for centuries, its mechanism has not been elucidated. Stem cells are defined as the cells that possess specific markers and have not undergone differentiation. Under suitable conditions and stimuli, they can differentiate into desired cells. The detection of stem cells, whose exact origin is not known, in breast milk and their demonstration in the baby's body have prompted the necessity of exploring the possible role of stem cells in the treatment of diseases. In this review, breast milk-derived stem cells and their possible role in neonatology are discussed.
