Risk factor analysis for the development and progression of retinopathy of prematurity.
Article in PloS one, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 papers.
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
purposeTo classify the risk factors that contribute to the development versus progression of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
methodsThe medical records of premature infants born with a birth weight (BW) less than 1501 g or a gestational age (GA) of 32 weeks or less were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty potential risk factors that may influence the development or progression of ROP were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The progression of ROP was defined as type 1 ROP, threshold ROP, or aggressive posterior ROP for which treatment was recommended.
resultsA total of 324 eyes were included; 157 eyes (48.5%) showed ROP development, and 48 eyes exhibited ROP progression (14.8% of all eyes and 30.6% of the ROP-developed eyes). According to the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, prenatal steroid use, GA, the duration of mechanical ventilation, and respiratory distress syndrome were associated with the development of ROP. However, GA, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, the number of red blood cell units transfused, intraventricular hemorrhage, and periventricular leukomalacia were significantly correlated with ROP progression.
conclusionThe risk factors that influenced ROP development versus ROP progression were not identical. Evaluating these risk factors during screening of high-risk premature infants will help determine the appropriate timing of examinations and treatment.
