The infographic uses a clean layout with a red and gray color scheme. On the left, an illustration of an infant with gastroschisis is shown. Four outcome metrics are displayed across the middle using icons: a tombstone for mortality, a hospital building for length of stay, a baby bottle for time to full feeds, and a blood drop with bacteria for central line sepsis. Red horizontal bars indicate comparative values between the two treatment groups.
