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

backgroundDue to global immaturity, very low birthweight (VLBW) infants (<1,500 g) require auxiliary thermal and respiratory care. However, the impact of respiratory care on infant thermal stability remains unclear.

aimsExamine the association between VLBW infant body temperatures over time and respiratory support type (mechanical ventilation (MV), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), room air (RA)), respiratory care interventions, and nursing care.

designExploratory, longitudinal, and correlational design. SUBJECTS: 12 infants <29 weeks' gestation (median = 27.1, 25.9-27.9) and <1,200 g (median = 865 g, 660-1,050 g). MEASUREMENTS: Minute-to-minute body temperatures and continuous video data were collected over the first 5 days of life. Video data was coded with Noldus Observer®XT software. Respiratory support was retrieved from the electronic health record. Hierarchical multi-level, mixed-effects models for intensive longitudinal data examined the associations.

resultsBody temperatures were associated with respiratory support type, respiratory care, and care events (all

conclusionOur results found an association between VLBW infant thermal instability and respiratory support type, respiratory care, and care events. Larger studies with advanced longitudinal analysis are needed to assess the causal impact of these interventions on infant temperatures over time, as well as the implications of longitudinal thermal instability on infant outcomes.
