Extended Sick Neonate Score (ESNS) for Clinical Assessment and Mortality Prediction in Sick Newborns referred to Tertiary Care.
Article in Indian pediatrics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 evaluate utility of a new Extended Sick Neonate Score (ESNS). to predict 'in-hospital mortality' and compare with Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology - Perinatal Extension II (SNAPPE II) and Sick Neonate Score (SNS).
designProspective observational study.
methodsAll extramural sick newborns transported to the neonatology unit of a tertiary care teaching hospital over a period of one year. Correlation between ESNS, SNAPPE-II and SNS scoring, and sensitivity/specificity of each score to predict mortality were determined.
results961 newborns were enrolled in the study. ESNS, SNAPPE II and SNS were strongly correlated, even when stratified by gestation. ESNS of ≤11 had the best sensitivity (85.9%) and specificity (89.8%). For preterms, ESNS ≤12 had the best sensitivity (92.3%) and specificity (76.7%).
conclusionESNS can predict 'in-hospital mortality' outcome with satisfactory sensitivity and specificity.
