1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivePediatric aerodigestive and upper gastrointestinal (UGI) motility disorders are common and may be associated with compromised nutritional status and decreased quality of life. Traditional dietary recommendations for aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders have been rudimentary and largely based upon experience and common sense rather than scientific evidence.

methodsThis position paper on the role of dietary therapy in pediatric aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders was developed by an expert group from the North American Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) Neurogastroenterology and Motility Committee that performed an evidence-based search of the literature on pediatric aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders. The literature was summarized and expert recommendations developed. The authorship met to discuss the evidence and statements. A consensus of at least 70% was required to approve a recommendation. Areas requiring further research were identified.

resultsThe literature on nutrition in pediatric aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders is limited. These patients benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration involving dietitians for ongoing assessment for growth and nutritional deficiencies as a result of their condition.

conclusionThis position paper provides the first set of expert recommendations on dietary considerations for pediatric patients with aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders. Further research is needed to bridge the gaps in knowledge as identified in this paper.
