[Comparison of the efficacy of domestic and imported caffeine citrate in the treatment of apnea in preterm infants: a prospective randomized double-blind controlled trial].
Trial report in Zhongguo dang dai er ke za zhi = Chinese journal of contemporary pediatrics, 2020. 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
objectiveTo compare the efficacy of domestic and imported caffeine citrate in the treatment of apnea in preterm infants.
methodsA total of 98 preterm infants with a gestational age of 28 - <34 weeks between April 2018 and December 2019 were enrolled. They were randomly administered with domestic (n=48) or imported caffeine citrate (n=50) within 6 hours after birth. The therapeutic effects, complications, adverse effects and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups.
resultsThere were no significant differences in the incidence of apnea within 7 days after birth, daily frequency of apnea, the time of apnea disappearance, the failure rate of intubation-surfactant-extubation strategy, the time of non-invasive assisted ventilation, the duration of oxygen therapy, the duration of caffeine citrate therapy, the length of hospital stay, blood gas analysis results, liver and kidney function testing results between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications and the mortality rate between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse effects between the two groups (P>0.05).
conclusionsThe efficacy and safety of domestic caffeine citrate in the treatment of apnea are similar to those of imported caffeine citrate in preterm infants.
