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

objectiveTo analyse the trend change and level change of neonatal health services and neonatal mortality before and after the introduction of the Basic Public Health Service (BPHS) project in 2009. DESIGN AND

settingA national longitudinal study on neonatal mortality from 1991 to 2017 and neonatal health services from 2000 to 2017 was conducted based on data extracted from the National Neonatal Mortality Surveillance System and National Health Statistic Yearbook. The segmented linear regression model was used to assess the level changes and trend changes of the outcome variables before and after the introduction of BPHS project. Pearson correlation analysis as conducted to measure association between neonatal mortality rates (NMRs) and maternal health management rates (MMRs), neonatal visit rates, respectively. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: The outcome variables were national NMR, the gap of NMR between urban and rural areas, maternal health management rate and neonatal visit rate.

resultsThe annual trend change coefficient of national NMR and the gap of NMR between urban and rural areas were -0.57 (p<0.01) and -0.49 (p<0.01) after the introduction of BPHS project, while the annual trend coefficient of the MMR and the neonatal visit rate were 1.21 (p<0.01) and 0.85 (p<0.01), respectively. The negative correlations were found between NMR and MMR (r=-0.79, p<0.01) and neonatal visit rate (r=-0.76, p<0.01).

conclusionThe BPHS project was found to be associated with increased volume of neonatal health services and reduced NMR. The design and implementation of this project may provide references to other low-income and middle-income countries.
