Perinatal factors associated with amplitude-integrated electroencephalography abnormalities in preterm infants on the first day of life.
Article in Jornal de pediatria. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveEvaluate the association between perinatal factors and amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram abnormalities in preterm infants on the first day of life.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study of 60 infants with gestational age between 23 and 32 weeks, without malformations. Infants were continuously monitored by amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram on the first day of life, for at least 3h. The tracings were recorded and analyzed in each column for the following: burst-suppression pattern, sleep-wake cycle, and amplitude of the lower margin (<3μV or <5μV). The association of maternal complications, mode of delivery, birth weight, gestational age, neonatal sex, resuscitation procedures, hypothermia on admission, and the Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology, Perinatal Extension, Version II [SNAPPE-II]) with amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram alterations was assessed by multiple logistic regression.
resultsA discontinuous pattern occurred in 65% of infants, and a continuous pattern occurred in 23%. The burst-suppression pattern was associated with vaginal delivery (OR: 7.6; 95% CI: 1.1-53.1) and SNAPPE-II≥40 (OR: 13.1; 95% CI: 1.8-95.1). A lower margin of the amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram of <3μV was also associated with SNAPPE-II≥40 (OR: 10.6, 95% CI: 2.3-49.2), while a value <5μV was associated with lower GA (OR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.34-0.76). There were no associations between the perinatal variables and the absence of a sleep-wake cycle in amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram recordings on the first day of life.
conclusionBiological variables and clinical severity are associated with electroencephalographic characteristics of preterm infants on the first day of life and should be considered in clinical practice when amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram is performed.
