Effect of Surfactant Therapy Using Orogastric Tube for Tracheal Catheterization in Preterm Newborns with Respiratory Distress.
Observational study in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo assess the outcome of a modified method of Minimally Invasive Surfactant Therapy (MIST) therapy where an orogastric tube was used for tracheal catherization to deliver surfactant in preterm newborns less than 34 wk of gestation with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
methodsA single centre, prospective observational study was conducted to enroll eligible inborn preterm neonates with gestation age more than 24 wk but less than 34 wk and suffering from RDS to receive surfactant using MIST. Results were compared with a historical cohort of preterms who received surfactant with InSurE (Intubate, Surfactant, Extubate) technique.
resultsSixty four cases in the modified MIST group were compared with a historic cohort of 68 cases in the InSurE group. There were no differences in the requirement of intubation and mechanical ventilation (MV) in the first 72 h but the duration of MV and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) were significantly less in modified MIST group. Other neonatal morbidities and mortality rates were similar in either of the groups.
conclusionsThe modified MIST technique is an effective method for the treatment of RDS in preterms with better clinical efficacy and comparable outcomes than the more invasive InSurE procedure and deserves further evaluation.
