Lack of Immediate Diagnosis and Appropriate Intervention Leads to Malnutrition in an Infant With Cleft Palate.
Article in Journal of pediatric health care : official publication of National Association of Pediatric Nurse Associates & Practitioners. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This case report describes a full-term infant with a cleft palate who experienced malnutrition because of the delayed introduction of a cleft-adapted bottle and identifies potential areas for improvement in clinical practice. The infant's weight for age z-score at birth was 0.05 and dropped to -1.45 by 2 months of age, indicating mild malnutrition. The infant established care with a cleft team and a cleft-adapted bottle was recommended as the primary feeding method. Feeding time subsequently decreased from 60 minutes per feeding to 20 minutes. The infant presented for palate repair at 9 months of age, and his z-score was -0.01, indicating he was no longer malnourished. Cleft-adapted bottles aid in feeding efficiency in infants with cleft palate, which may subsequently impact weight gain. Appropriate weight gain is essential to receive timely cleft palate repair and support healing.
