Testing the reported long-term advantages of protein-fortified human milk in very low birth weight neonates.

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
Preterm infants are at-risk for extrauterine growth restriction and downward percentile-crossing between birth and discharge. Increased energy and protein intake through fortification of human milk during the first weeks of life has been associated with improved short-term growth and better developmental outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether these benefits persist up to children school age. The study was designed as an observational study. During hospitalization, 22 very low birth weight preterm infants were fed with increasing protein fortification of human milk (protein supplemented group, PSG). As a control group (CG), 11 preterm infants were fed with standard nutrition regimen. At children school age (9-11 years), we assessed anthropometric data (weight, height, BMI), global health (renal function), and specific psychological outcomes (Child Behavior Checklist 6-18). A global homogeneity between CG and PSG groups emerged: we found no significant differences in weight, height, and BMI, nor in internalizing symptom outcomes (all
