The Physiologic Significance of Early Urinary Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein Levels in Preterm Infants: A Prospective Cohort Study.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) is released from mature enterocytes when cell membrane integrity is disrupted. This study aimed to prospectively investigate the physiologic significance of early urinary I-FABP and whether it might reflect intestinal compromise in preterm infants. We conducted a prospective cohort study of 100 preterm infants weighing <1250 g and collected serial urine samples at 12, 24, and 48 h after birth. The correlations between initial urinary I-FABP/urinary creatinine (creatinine
