Oxygen saturation immediately after birth in infants delivered in tertiary care hospital in India.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo study the sequential changes in SpO2 values in newborns delivered in a teaching hospital in India.
methodsFull-term infants born by normal vaginal delivery to registered mothers at KLE University Hospital, Belgaum with birth weight more than 2,500 g, no congenital anomalies and who had received only routine care at birth were included in the study. After delivery, newborn infants were placed on a resuscitation trolley under a radiant warmer; the oxygen saturation sensor was attached (Nellcor DURA-Y multisite oxygen sensor) and then connected to the monitor (Planet 55 multiparameter recorder).
resultsThe mean (SD) gestational age of infants included in the study was 38.8 (1.1) wk and birth weight was 2,800 (300) g. The median (IQR) oxygen saturation level (SpO2) at 2 min of age was 69 % (68 %-79 %). The median level of SpO2 at 90 % and 95 % saturation was attained at 6.5 min and at 11 min of life, respectively.
conclusionsInfants delivered in resource poor facilities of developing countries take 11 min to reach 95 % saturations after birth but they are within the reference range values of Neonatal Resuscitation Program 2010 guidelines.
