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

A neonate with gastroschisis had silo placement and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring of intestinal haemoglobin oxygen saturation (RSO2). An ischemic loop of bowel demonstrated decreased RSO2, with reversal of clinical ischemia and RSO2 postoperatively. This demonstrates possible advantage of monitoring intestinal RSO2 in neonates at risk of ischemia, and response to intervention.
