The effect of umbilical cord milking on cerebral blood flow in very preterm infants: a randomized controlled study.
Trial report 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. It is linked to trial NCT01487187 (The Effect of Umbilical Cord Milking on Hemodynamic Status of Preterm Infants), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTo compare the effect of umbilical cord milking (UCM) vs. early cord clamping (ECC) on cerebral blood flow (CBF).
methodPreterm infants <31 weeks' gestation were randomized to receive UCM or ECC at birth. Blood flow velocities and resistive & pulsatility indices of middle and anterior cerebral arteries were measured at 4-6 and 10-12 h after birth as an estimate of CBF.
resultsRandomization allocated 37 infants to UCM and 36 to ECC. Maternal and antenatal variables were similar. There were no significant differences between groups in middle or anterior CBF velocities and resistive indices at either study time point. CBF variables were not correlated with mean blood pressure, systemic blood flow, or intraventricular hemorrhage.
conclusionsIn very preterm infants, UCM compared with ECC was not shown to change CBF indices during the first 12 h of age or correlate with other hemodynamic measures or with intraventricular hemorrhage.
