Teduglutide in pediatric patients under 10 kg with short bowel syndrome on parenteral support: An open-label study.
Trial report in Pediatrics international : official journal of the Japan Pediatric Society. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05027308 (A Phase 3, Open-label Safety Study of Teduglutide in Japanese Pediatric Patients With Short Bowel Syndrome Who Are Dependent on Parenteral Support, Aged 4 Months of Corrected Gestational Age or Older, and Requiring the Dosing of 1.25 mg Formulation), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundPatients with short bowel syndrome (SBS)-associated intestinal failure (SBS-IF) are dependent on parenteral support (PS). In Japan, teduglutide is the only GLP-2 analog medicine indicated for these patients. There are limited data for pediatric patients, especially those with a low body weight. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of teduglutide in Japanese pediatric patients with SBS-IF (dependence on PS to provide ≥30% of fluid or caloric intake needs) who weighed less than 10 kg.
methodsThis phase 3, open-label study enrolled Japanese pediatric patients with SBS-IF. Patients weighing less than 10 kg received teduglutide 0.05 mg/kg/day subcutaneously in 28-week treatment cycles (24 weeks of teduglutide treatment and 4 weeks of follow-up). Adverse events, changes in PS requirements, and growth parameters were assessed.
resultsThree patients completed the study, with a mean teduglutide exposure duration of 48.9 weeks. All patients experienced treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), but none were related to the study drug or led to death or treatment discontinuation. Clinically meaningful reductions in mean PS volume (13.1%) and mean PS caloric intake (46.6%) were observed at the end of treatment from baseline. One patient achieved a reduction in PS volume of ≥20% at the end of treatment from baseline. Growth parameters showed increases in weight and height/length-for-age z-scores at the end of treatment from baseline.
conclusionIn the three patients with SBS-IF who weighed less than 10 kg, no new safety signals were observed following teduglutide treatment. Clinically meaningful reductions in PS were noted and there was no adverse impact on growth parameters.
