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

objectiveTo investigate the impact of different feeding methods on the manifestation of novel coronavirus infection symptoms in newborns following maternal infection with the novel coronavirus.

resultsAmong the 257 mother-infant pairs, participants were categorized into three groups according to feeding method: the direct breastfeeding group (n = 125), the bottle-feeding with expressed breast milk group (n = 87), and the artificial feeding group (n = 45). No statistically significant differences were observed in the maternal clinical manifestations of COVID-19 across the three groups (p > 0.05). Importantly, none of the newborns in any of the three groups exhibited symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection either during hospitalization or during the one-week follow-up after discharge.
