Optimizing developmental outcomes in premature infants through a multidisciplinary approach to care.
Article in Pediatric research, 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
backgroundPreterm birth remains the leading risk factor for perinatal mortality and morbidity. Infants born preterm miss critical periods of development, placing them at increased risk for a range of neurodevelopmental, motor, and sensory complications. These complex health outcomes are further compounded by biological, behavioral, and social factors, with socioeconomically disadvantaged populations disproportionally affected. As rates of preterm birth rise, and survival improves at increasingly earlier gestational ages, the demand for comprehensive and accessible care for this high-risk population continues to grow.
methodsThe Premature Outpatient Clinic at Hospital São Paulo (HSP) addresses this need through free, multidisciplinary healthcare designed to improve developmental outcomes for preterm infants.
resultsThrough systematic assessment, coordinated follow-up, and early intervention, the clinic aids in the timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment for patients across pediatric specialties.
conclusionBroader implementation of this model in other regions may help and meet the global need for efficient, equitable care for this growing and vulnerable population. IMPACT: Preterm birth places infants at increased risk for complex health outcomes that require comprehensive and accessible care. Preterm infants are at elevated risk for many growth complications due to missed critical development, emphasizing the need for timely diagnosis and intervention to improve health outcomes. The Premature Outpatient Clinic addresses the need for multidisciplinary healthcare to improve developmental outcomes for preterm infants. A free outpatient clinic for preterm infants, integrating multiple specialties under one roof, can reduce healthcare barriers for socioeconomically disadvantaged families. Preterm infants face unique health outcomes; implementation specialized preterm clinics can make long-term follow-up focused and inclusive.
