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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe International Intestinal Failure Registry (IIFR) is an international consortium to study intestinal failure (IF) outcomes in a large contemporary pediatric cohort. We aimed to identify predictors of early (1-year) enteral autonomy.

methodsWe included IIFR pilot phase patients. IF was defined by a parenteral nutrition need for at least 60 days due to a primary gastrointestinal etiology. The primary outcome was time to enteral autonomy achievement. We built a mixed-effects Weibull accelerated failure time model with random effects by center to analyze variables associated with enteral autonomy achievement with a primary outcome of time ratio (TR).

resultsWe included 189 patients (82% with short bowel syndrome) representing 11 international centers. Cumulative incidence of early enteral autonomy was 51.6%, and death was 6.5%. In multivariable analysis, ostomy presence (TR, 2.63; 95% CI, 1.41-4.90) was associated with increased time to enteral autonomy achievement, and Asian/Indian (TR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.10-0.81) and Pacific Islander race (TR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.13-0.90) were associated with decreased time to enteral autonomy achievement. In a second model in the subset with measured percentage of bowel length remaining, ostomy presence (TR, 4.21; 95% CI, 1.90-9.33) was associated with increased time to enteral autonomy achievement, whereas greater percentage of bowel remaining (TR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.94-0.98) was associated with decreased time to enteral autonomy achievement.

conclusionsMinimizing bowel resection at initial surgery and establishing bowel continuity by ostomy reversal can effectively decrease the time to early enteral autonomy achievement in children with IF.
