A Dedicated Multidisciplinary Growth and Feeding Clinic for Infants with Cleft Lip and/or Palate Demonstrates Need for Intervention.
Article in The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
ObjectiveA Growth and Feeding Clinic (GFC) focused on early intervention around feeding routines in patients with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) was implemented.DesignThis study assessed the effect of preoperative feeding interventions provided by the GFC.SettingTertiary academic center.MethodsThis study evaluated patients with CL/P who were cared for by the GFC and a control group of patients with CL/P. Weight-for-age (WFA) Z-score of less than -2.00 was used as a cutoff to classify patients who were underweight during the preoperative period.Main Outcome MeasureThe number of underweight patients who were able to reach normal weight by the time of their cleft lip repair was used as the primary outcome measure.ResultsWithin both the GFC and control groups, 25% of patients with CL/P were underweight as determined by WFA Z-score. GFC patients who were underweight received more clinic visits (
