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

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate the association between ultrasound findings and preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

methodsPreterm infants with a gestation age of less than 28 weeks or birthweight less than 1,500 g admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in the Chengdu Women's & Children's Central Hospital from June 2018 to June 2019 were enrolled in the study and divided into 2 groups: the BPD group and the non-BPD group. All clinical data and lung ultrasound were retrospectively analyzed.

resultsA total of 81 neonates (gestational age =29.71±2.27 weeks; birth weight =1,189.5±184.5 g) were enrolled in our center. The regression analysis showed that gestational age [odds ratio (OR) =0.57; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.42-0.77, P=0.0002], birthweight (OR =0.99; 95% CI: 0.99-1.00, P<0.0001), mild asphyxia (OR =3.3; 95% CI: 1.24-8.74, P=0.0165), anemia (OR =4.43; 95% CI: 1.34-14.64, P=0.0146), blood transfusion (OR =3.68; 95% CI: 1.38-9.79, P=0.0090), respiratory failure (OR =6.58; 95% CI: 1.27-34.08, P=0.0486), heart failure (OR =6.58; 95% CI: 1.27-34.08, P=0.0248), and "debris" lung ultrasound findings (OR =21.82; 95% CI: 2.63-181.11, P=0.0043) were correlated with BPD.

conclusionsBPD-related lung ultrasound findings can be a kind of imaging marker to diagnose BPD.
