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

The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) diagnosis and risk factors of short-term poor prognosis for premature infants. This study analyzed the clinical data of 81 premature infants (<32 weeks gestational age) with BPD, who were on oxygen therapy >28 days, and survived >36 weeks (corrected age). Outcome measures included treatments, conditions on the 28th day after birth, oxygen therapy conditions at the 36th week, occurrence of any serious complications during hospital stay. The major risk factors affecting prognosis were ventilation duration, duration of oxygen therapy, application of steroids, hypothyroidism and severity of BPD (all P<0.05). Interventions for complications (n=53) resulted in ceased inhalation of oxygen in 12 infants, improvement of symptoms in 26 infants, and were ineffective in 15 infants. BPD prognosis can be improved by shortening the duration of invasive ventilation and correcting thyroid function.
