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

objectiveAlthough hospitals increasingly offer therapeutic hypothermia (TH), there is variable implementation of related services. We assessed current practices and opinions regarding what services should be required of centers providing TH in California. STUDY

designWe surveyed neonatal intensive care unit physicians statewide regarding practices and opinions about services related to TH.

resultsOf the 50 participating centers (47% response rate), 66% offer TH. Most TH centers reported using: an evidence-based protocol (92%), neurology consultation (92%), amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) or EEG (88%), magnetic resonance imagings (MRIs) interpreted by pediatric neuroradiologists (71%) and developmental follow-up (93%). TH centers reported treating a median of 11 patients annually (interquartile range (IQR) 4 to 24). Respondents considered it 'critical' that TH centers offer: aEEG monitoring (70%), MRI (69%), occupational and physical therapy (67%) and developmental follow-up (94%). Over 70% thought TH centers should treat a minimum volume annually (median=10, IQR 5 to 12).

conclusionPhysicians across practice settings in California endorsed minimum standards for TH centers to promote quality of care.
