Nasal high-frequency oscillation ventilation in neonates: a survey in five European countries.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 28 papers, 11 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
unlabelledNasal high-frequency oscillation ventilation (nHFOV) is a non-invasive ventilation mode that applies an oscillatory pressure waveform to the airways using a nasal interface. nHFOV has been shown to facilitate carbon dioxide expiration, but little is known about its use in neonates. In a questionnaire-based survey, we assessed nHFOV use in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Austria, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden. Questions included indications for nHFOV, equipment used, ventilator settings, and observed side effects. Of the clinical directors of 186 NICUs contacted, 172 (92 %) participated. Among those responding, 30/172 (17 %) used nHFOV, most frequently in premature infants <1500 g (27/30) for the indication nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) failure (27/30). Binasal prongs (22/30) were the most common interfaces. The median (range) mean airway pressure when starting nHFOV was 8 (6-12) cm H2O, and the maximum mean airway pressure was 10 (7-18) cm H2O. The nHFOV frequency was 10 (6-13) Hz. Abdominal distension (11/30), upper airway obstruction due to secretions (8/30), and highly viscous secretions (7/30) were the most common nHFOV side effects.
conclusionIn a number of European NICUs, clinicians use nHFOV. The present survey identified differences in nHFOV equipment, indications, and settings. Controlled clinical trials are needed to investigate the efficacy and side effects of nHFOV in neonates.
