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

objectiveThe objective of this study is to evaluate the corrected age and weight that infants were transferred into an open cot using a heated mattress, in overall and within the subgroups of early (weight ≤ 1400 g) and standard transfer (weight > 1400 g).

designRetrospective cohort study in a tertiary neonatal unit

resultsOne hundred and thirty-five preterm infants were analysed. The mean weight of moving into an open cot was 1370 ± 167 g at a corrected age 33 ± 1.8 weeks. Eighty-three infants (61%) were transferred early at a mean weight 1276 ± 98 g compared with 52 infants of standard transfer with a mean weight 1522 ± 141 g. Infants of the early group had higher weight gain, were discharged earlier and had shorter length of stay.

conclusionsStable preterm infants can be safely moved to an open cot at < 33 weeks and weight ≤ 1400 g.
