Description of Full-Term Infants Hospitalized for Poor Weight Gain in the First Month of Life.
Article in Maternal and child health journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPoor weight gain in infants under one month old is a common reason for hospitalization.
objectivesWe aimed to study the etiologies of poor weight gain in hospitalized full-term infants under one month old, as well as the type of population epidemiology and diagnostic tests performed.
methodsThe design was a retrospective study, with data obtained from four French hospitals, evaluating full-term infants less than one month who were hospitalized for poor weight gain.
resultsOf the 313 children hospitalized for poor weight gain included in our study, the main etiologies were intake deficiency (72.8%), jaundice (12.1%) and infections (8.3%). Our study population comprised 55.9% male, the mean age at the time of hospitalization was 11.4 days (+/- 5), and 64.5% were exclusively breastfed. We found no predisposing factors for intake deficiency.
conclusionIn full-term infants hospitalized for poor weight gain in their first month of life, intake deficiency appears to be the most frequent diagnosis, without other identifiable distinctive factors in our study. Identifying risk factors for intake deficiency and suggesting increased surveillance of at-risk infants could help limit its occurrence, reduce the need for invasive tests carried out and decrease the resulting number of hospitalizations.
