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 compare the incidence of chronic lung disease (CLD) in extremely low birth weight (ELBW, < or =1000 g) infants before and after the introduction of early, preferential application of nasal continuous airway pressure (NCPAP) utilizing a variable flow delivery system. STUDY

designA retrospective cohort study of ELBW infants 2 years prior to (Pre-early NCPAP, n=96) and 2 years following (Early NCPAP, n=75) the initiation of an early NCPAP policy.

resultsThere were no significant changes (Pre-early NCPAP vs Early NCPAP) in the incidences of CLD (35 vs 33%, P=0.81) or CLD or death (50 vs 43%, P=0.34). Infants in the Early NCPAP group weaned off mechanical ventilation and supplemental oxygen more rapidly than infants in the Pre-early NCPAP group (hazard ratio (HR) 1.80, P=0.002 and HR 1.69, P=0.01).

conclusionA policy of early NCPAP has not decreased the incidence of CLD despite a decrease in time to successful tracheal extubation.
