An hour-specific transcutaneous bilirubin nomogram for Mongolian neonates.
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. Cited by 8 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
unlabelledTranscutaneous bilirubin (TcB) nomograms have been developed for different populations. However, the TcB level, rate of rise and peak varies among countries and ethnicities. The aim of this study was to establish an hour-specific TcB nomogram for healthy term and late preterm Mongolian neonates during the first 144 h after birth. A total of 5084 TcB measurements from 1297 healthy neonates (gestational age ≥35 weeks, birth weight ≥2000 g) were obtained from October 2012 to October 2013. All measurements were performed using the Jaundice Meter, the JM-103 at 6 to 144 postnatal hours. Mongolian infants had the following characteristics: 27.1 % were delivered by cesarean section, 17.8 % had a birth weight >4000 g, and >90 % were being breastfed. TcB percentiles for each designated time point were calculated for the development of an hour-specific nomogram. TcB levels increased most rapidly in the first 24 h and less rapidly from 24 to 78 h, reaching a plateau after 78 h for the 50th percentile. TcB levels of Mongolian neonates for each time point were higher than those of previous studies.
conclusionThe higher values of the TcB nomogram for Mongolian neonates may be due to their Asian ethnicity and exclusive breastfeeding. WHAT IS KNOWN: • TcB nomograms for neonatal jaundice screening have been established for many countries and ethnicities. The pattern of the TcB nomogram varies by country and ethnicity. What is New: • A TcB nomogram for neonates of Mongolian ethnicity at 6-144 postnatal hours was created and it had higher values than those in previous studies.
