An analysis on treatment effect of blue light phototherapy combined with Bifico in treating neonatal hemolytic jaundice.

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
This study aimed to discuss and evaluate the clinical effect of blue light phototherapy combined with bifico in treating neonatal hemolytic jaundice. One hundred and twenty cases with neonatal hemolytic jaundice were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 60 cases in each group. Neonatal patients in the control group were treated with traditional treatment, including administration of enzyme inducer phenobarbital and blue light phototherapy for 8 consecutive hours every day. Neonatal patients in the treatment group received bifico orally based on traditional treatment. Clinical effects of the two groups were observed after one course of treatment (7 days as one course). During the first course, serum bilirubin level in the treatment group treated with blue light phototherapy combined with bifico declined more rapidly (P<0.01) and more significantly (P<0.01) than that in the control group, and the mean time for eliminating jaundice was significantly reduced (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 91.67% in the treatment group, while that was 85.00% in the control group, which suggested that the treatment effect of the treatment group was better than that of the control group and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with traditional treatment, the treatment effect of blue light phototherapy combined with bifico in treating neonatal hemolytic jaundice is significantly improved and the speed of eliminating jaundice is also higher. Thus, it is worthy to be applied in clinical practice.
