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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the association of neonatal indirect hyperbilirubinemia in exclusively breast-fed infants with UGT1A1 (Uridine Diphosphate-Glucuronyl transferase 1A1) polymorphism.

methods50 neonates were classified into 2 groups: 1) 30 full term neonates with indirect hyperbilirubinemia (gestational age (GA) 39.5 ± 1.2 weeks); 2) 20 apparently healthy full-term neonates. Group 1 was further subdivided based on percentage of body weight lost: (A) less than 10%; (B) 10% or more.

resultsThere was a statistically significant decrease in weight at sample collection and significant increase in indirect bilirubin level in patients group compared to control group, there was statistically significant difference as regard to genotype frequency [G/G, G/A, A/A], and allele frequency (A,G) between patients and control group. There was statistically significant increase in indirect bilirubin level in G/A - A/A genotypes. By comparing subgroup (A) and subgroup (B), there was statistically significant increase in total bilirubin level in subgroup (B). There was statistically high significant difference regarding genotype frequency (G/G, G/A, A/A) and allele frequency (G, A) between subgroup A and B. Multiple stepwise regression analysis was done using hyperbilirubinemia as a dependent factor and body weight loss, genotype (G/A) and allele (A) as independent factors. Body weight loss, genotype (G/A) and allele (A) was found to be significant independent predictors for hyperbilirubinemia.

conclusionThe results of the present study revealed that UGT1A1 polymorphism can be used as a novel predictor for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in breast fed full term neonates.
