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

objectiveThis study was aimed to examine the relationship between duration of infant exposure to a moderate-to-large patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) shunt and the risk of developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or death before 36 weeks (BPD/death). STUDY

designInfants <28 weeks' gestation who survived ≥7 days (

resultsIn multivariable regression models, BPD/death did not appear to be increased until infants had been exposed to a moderate-to-large PDA for at least 7-13 days: OR (95%CI) (referent = closed or small PDA): moderate-to-large PDA exposure for <7 days: 0.38 (range, 0.10-1.46); for 7 to 13 days = 2.12 (range, 1.04-4.32); for ≥14 days = 3.86 (range, 2.15-6.96). Once the threshold of 7 to 13 days had been reached, additional exposure (≥14 days) did not significantly add to the increased incidence of BPD/death: (referent exposure = 7-13 days) exposure for 14 to 27 days = 1.34 (range, 0.52-3.45); for 28 to 48 days = 2.34 (range, 0.88-6.19); for ≥49 days = 1.80 (range. 0.59-5.47). A similar relationship was found for the outcome of BPD-alone.

conclusionInfants < 28 weeks' gestation required at least 7 to 13 days of exposure to a moderate-to-large PDA before a significant increase in the incidence of BPD/death was apparent. Once this threshold was reached additional exposure to a moderate-to-large PDA did not significantly add to the increased incidence of BPD/death.
