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
summary
backgroundSensitivity of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in detecting early-onset bacterial infection (EOBI) is high. A high percentage is bound to nonspecific receptors on erythrocytes which can be determined via cell lysis. We have shown detergent-lysed whole blood (DLWB) IL-8 to be superior to plasma IL-8 in detecting EOBI.
methodsTo evaluate influence of pre- and perinatal factors on plasma and DLWB IL-8 concentrations, IL-8 was determined via ELISA (Immu-lite) in 146 noninfected newborns with risk factors for EOBI at two different time periods: 0-6 (group I) and 24-30 h (group II) after birth. The influence of gender, mode of delivery, gestational age and hematocrit was evaluated.
resultsWhile we found no influence of gender or gestational age, hematocrit was positively correlated with IL-8 plasma concentration (group I: r = 0.33, p < 0.001; group II: r = 0.30, p <0.01). IL-8 plasma concentrations after primary versus secondary cesarean section were lower (p < 0.05). Gestational age was correlated with DLWB IL-8 concentrations (group I: r = 0.46, p < 0.001; group II: r = 0.28, p < 0.001).
conclusionPlasma IL-8 concentrations were positively correlated with hematocrit, whereas DLWB IL-8 concentrations increased with gestational age. This may be relevant to the interpretation of IL-8 in preterm infants and infants with anemia, polyglobulia or hematolytic diseases.
