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

objectiveTo characterize the association of histological chorioamnionitis (HCA) with neurodevelopmental outcomes in children born at <30 weeks gestation. STUDY

designThis retrospective cohort study included infants born 2006-2012 in whom placental histopathology, neonatal outcomes, and Bayley-III assessment at age 2 years were available. We assessed the association of HCA exposure with cognitive, language, and motor delay with logistic regression models adjusted for gestational age, sex, small for gestational age and brain injury.

resultsOf 1353 infants, 985 had histological and neonatal data available, and 708 infants had Bayley-III assessments. HCA-exposed infants were at higher risk of some neonatal adverse outcomes, and stage of HCA correlated with low Apgar score and early-onset sepsis. Exposure to HCA was not associated with neurodevelopmental outcomes in adjusted models including stage of HCA.

conclusionsExposure to HCA, especially higher stage, was associated with neonatal morbidity but not with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age.
