Evaluation of risk factors for development of severe hyperbilirubinemia in term and near term infants in Turkey.

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 determine clinical features, etiology and risk factors in term and near term newborns with severe hyperbilirubinemia.
methodsDuring ten years period (2000 - 2009), infants of ≥ 35 gestational weeks who received phototherapy were evaluated retrospectively. The study population was divided into two groups and clinical features, etiology and risk factors were compared. Group 1 defined by those who had bilirubin level ≥25 mg/dl (severe hyperbilirubinemia) and group 2 defined by bilirubin level <25 mg/dl.
resultsDuring the study period 1335 babies were evaluated. Severe hyperbilirubinemia was found in 137 (10.3%) patients. Total serum bilirubin level was 29.7±4.7 mg/dl in group 1 and 18.9±3.5 mg/dl in group 2. Pathological weight loss, vaginal delivery and supplementary feeding were identified as significant risk factors for development of severe hyperbilirubinemia (p <0.001, p <0.001 and p = 0.04, respectively). The time at recognition of jaundice by family and postnatal age at admission were significantly higher in group 1. The ratios of previous sibling received phototherapy and being the second child or after were found higher in group 1.
conclusionPathological weight loss, vaginal delivery and supplementary feeding were determined as risk factors for development of severe hyperbilirubinemia. The newborns with severe hyperbilirubinemia had late recognition of jaundice and admission to hospital by their families.
