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

objectiveTo describe feeding and respiratory outcomes at discharge and at the most recent follow-up visit prior to four years old in infants evaluated for micrognathia. STUDY

designSingle-center retrospective analysis of 218 patients admitted and evaluated with congenital micrognathia during infancy. Outcomes were compared based on treatment (medical, mandibular distraction osteogenesis, or tracheostomy), and also compared based on syndromic status.

resultsTube feeding was required by 81% of infants at discharge and 41% at follow-up. Respiratory support was required by 32% at discharge and 22% at follow-up. There were no differences in feeding and respiratory support at discharge and at follow-up between medical treatment and mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Tracheostomy was associated with more tube feeding and respiratory support at both discharge and at follow-up. Genetic syndromes were more likely to require tube feeding and respiratory support.

conclusionLong-term feeding and respiratory support are common in infants hospitalized with micrognathia.
