Effect of Infant Formula Made With Milk Free of A1-Type β-Casein on Growth and Comfort: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 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
Consumption of milk free of A1-type β-casein (A1PF) can result in reduced gastrointestinal/inflammatory symptoms versus conventional milk (containing A1- and A2-type β-casein; CON); however, the comparative effects of infant formula made with these milks are unknown. This study compared growth, gastrointestinal tolerance, and crying frequency/duration in healthy Chinese infants aged 3-4 months who consumed both breastmilk and A1PF or CON infant formula. This open-label, randomized, controlled trial conducted between July and November 2023 evaluated anthropometric measurements and comfort (Infant Gastrointestinal Symptom Questionnaire [IGSQ] and frequency of crying) of mixed-fed infants who also consumed A1PF or CON infant formula. Eczema/dermatitis severity, quality of life, satisfaction with the formula, and adverse events were also assessed. In the A1PF (
