Long-term changes in oral feeding behaviors of growing rats.

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
Oral feeding is critical for survival in both humans and animals. However, few studies have reported quantitative behavioral measures associated with the development of oral feeding behaviors. Therefore, the present study investigated developmental changes in the oral feeding behaviors of rats by quantitatively assessing pasta eating and licking behaviors. In the pasta eating test, the time to finish pasta sticks of three different thicknesses (Φ = 0.9, 1.4, and 1.9 mm, 4 cm long) was recorded between postnatal day 29 (P29) and P49, because all rats were able to finish eating these pasta sticks on P29. A developmental decrease in the time to finish pasta sticks of all thicknesses was observed during the initial period of recordings and plateaued before P35. The extent of this decrease was dependent on the thickness of pasta sticks. In the licking test, the number of licks per 10 s and the total intake volume during the test were recorded between P19 and P49, because all rats were able to access and lick the solution on P19. The time courses of developmental increases in the number of licks and the total intake volume were similar to the results obtained in the pasta eating test. Collectively, these results suggest that developmental changes in pasta eating and licking behaviors markedly differed between the weanling and periadolescent periods. The present study also demonstrated the applicability of the pasta eating and licking tests to the quantification of developmental changes in the oral feeding behaviors of rats.
