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

backgroundIn infants with CLD there are no objective tests to monitor an infant's progress towards weaning out of oxygen inhalation therapy (O

objectiveTo report the clinical utility of "StressOx" in evaluating readiness for discontinuing O

methodsA retrospective review was done of StressOx tests administered at our center from 2002-2008. StressOx was performed based on a consistent clinical protocol in all eligible infants on O

resultsThere were 279 infants with 899 tests that met inclusion criteria. An average of 3 tests per infant was done, one week apart. The test had a specificity of 97.4% and a positive predictive value of 99.6% in determining success of discontinuing O

conclusionsStressOx appears to be a clinically useful test that may help in determining an infant's ability to successfully wean out of O
