Clinical validity of systemic arterial steal among extremely preterm infants with persistent patent ductus arteriosus.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectiveInvestigate relevance of diastolic flow abnormalities in celiac trunk (aCT) and middle cerebral artery (aMCA) among preterms with persistent hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (phsPDA, diameter ≥ 1.5 mm, and age ≥ 7 days). STUDY
designFive hundred fifteen echocardiograms from 156 neonates born <28 weeks gestation age (GA) were analyzed retrospectively. Infants with aCT or aMCA at any time were compared with the rest. Separate comparisons were performed for aCT and aMCA. Primary outcome was composite of death, chronic lung disease (CLD), or necrotizing enterocolitis ≥ stage 2. Logistic regression was used to adjust for confounders.
resultMean (SD) weight and GA were 820(214) g and 25.2(1.3) weeks. aMCA, but not aCT, was associated with primary outcome [adjusted odds ratio 2.17, 95% CI: 1.01-4.67] and CLD [2.20 (0.99-4.87)].
conclusionaMCA may be a valid marker for defining the clinical significance of phsPDA in preterm neonates. aCeT may be of limited value in selecting patients for treatment.
