Engagement With Recommended Developmental Follow-up and Supports Among Infants With Intrauterine Opioid Exposure.
Article in Journal of developmental and behavioral pediatrics : JDBP, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveDescribe the engagement of opioid-exposed infants (OEI) with recommended developmental surveillance and supports in the first year of life.
methodsWe conducted a single-site retrospective cohort study of OEI delivered between 2016 and 2021, linking birth hospitalization, developmental follow-up (DFU) clinic, and early intervention (EI) records. Primary outcomes were attendance at DFU clinic and evaluation by EI. We used multivariable modified Poisson regression to examine how birthing parent-, infant-, and clinic-level factors are associated with service engagement.
resultsOf 256 OEI, 75% engaged in at least 1 developmental service. Referral and attendance rates at the DFU clinic were 69% and 33%, respectively. Ninety-three percent were referred to EI, 73% evaluated and 58% enrolled in services. EI evaluation was positively associated with prolonged infant hospitalization (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] 1.01; CI, 1.002-1.01) and exposure to antidepressants (aRR 1.23; CI, 1.02-1.49) and cocaine (aRR 1.28; CI, 1.09-1.50). Probability of attendance at DFU was higher for infants born to parents receiving care at an integrated perinatal substance use clinic (aRR 2.13; CI, 1.07-4.24) and exposed to antipsychotics (aRR 1.73; CI, 1.12-2.67), whereas those remaining in parental custody had lower probability of engagement (aRR 0.62; CI, 0.39-0.97).
conclusionThree-quarters of the OEI engaged in developmental surveillance services in the first year of life. Factors relating to disease severity, location of birthing parent care, birthing parent co-exposures, and parental custody were associated with engagement. Efforts to improve engagement in recommended follow-up should elicit the perspectives of caregivers to better understand the mechanisms that drive these differences.
