Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 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
objectiveIdentify factors that impact attendance at a regional high-risk infant follow-up (HRIF) program and explore caregiver perceived barriers and facilitators to participation. STUDY
designA retrospective study identified factors associated with first visit non-attendance amongst infants referred to HRIF. Results guided recruitment for a mixed methods needs assessment including surveys and structured interviews to understand caregiver perspectives through inductive qualitative thematic analysis.
resultsCompared to infants who attended an initial HRIF visit, infants who did not attend had higher mean birthweight, public or no insurance, and maternal nativity outside the US. Qualitative prospective analyses revealed barriers and facilitators to HRIF program attendance were logistics, schedule, customer service, support for parental needs, knowledge, and attitude and motivation.
conclusionInterventions to improve HRIF program participation should engage families at high-risk of non-attendance from the NICU stay onward and should focus on education, social needs, and customer service.
