Immediate vs On-demand Maternal Oral Feeding for Parturients After Caesarean Section:

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 review compared the efficacy and safety of immediate oral feeding (initiated within 2 hours post-operation) versus on-demand feeding following caesarean section (CS). A systematic search of electronic databases up to 20 February 2025 identified three randomised controlled trials (RCTs) including a total of 1,158 patients. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB 2) tool. Statistical analysis was performed using Review Manager (RevMan) software to calculate mean differences (MDs), standardised mean differences (SMDs), and risk ratios (RRs). Immediate oral feeding was associated with a shorter time to first bowel sounds (MD -0.34 hours), although this difference was not statistically significant (
