Nutritional and speech therapy guidance for the introduction of foods in infants: dietary profile and risk of pediatric feeding disorder.
Observational study in CoDAS, 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
purposeTo assess the dietary profile, nutritional status and risk of pediatric eating disorders in healthy infants undergoing food introduction, and to compare these variables between groups that received or did not receive specialized nutritional and speech therapy guidance.
methodsDescriptive, observational, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach. The Guided Group was composed of infants whose parents reported having received guidance on food introduction in a multidisciplinary outpatient clinic. The Non-Guided Group was composed of infants whose parents did not receive guidance on food introduction or received it in childcare by other professionals. Medical records were analyzed and interviews and anthropometric measurements were taken to outline the clinical and nutritional profile. Diet quality was assessed using the Food Consumption Markers Form. The classification of nutritional status followed the World Health Organization curves. The risk of pediatric eating disorders was assessed using the Brazilian Infant Feeding Scale.
resultsSixty infants participated. The Non-Guided Group started complementary feeding early, before six months. The quality of the Guided Group's diet was better, with greater dietary diversity, higher consumption of foods rich in vitamin A and lower intake of ultra-processed foods. There was a predominance of eutrophy in both groups. The Guided Group had a lower risk of pediatric eating disorders.
conclusionNutritional and speech therapy guidance for the initiation of complementary feeding was associated with the quality of the infants' diet, but was not associated with nutritional status. The risk of pediatric eating disorders was more frequent in the Non-Guided Group.
