Postnatal corticosteroids for bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

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
Corticosteroids are used to improve lung function in infants who are progressing toward bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Corticosteroids facilitate extubation, but there is conflicting information about adverse effects on the developing brain. An approach to minimizing risk is to use low-dose, short-duration treatments in the highest risk ventilator-dependent patients. Questions remain about which corticosteroid is the safest and how to dose that corticosteroid.
