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

INTRODUCTION AND

aimDelayed referral of neonatal cholestasis (NC) can result in significant morbidity and mortality. In this multi-center study, we aimed to evaluate the reliability of the stool card in the Indian population and develop an integrated NC card with (a) urine color identification and (b) stool color for early referral.

methodsConsecutive children with NC were enrolled and divided into two groups (biliary atresia [BA] and non-BA). Normal healthy children at 6-8 weeks of age served as controls. Each photograph of stool and urine samples of every child was evaluated by 6 parents, 6 paramedical staff, and 4 trainee doctors using a stool color card as a reference for stool samples.

resultsOf 319 children (BA [n = 58], non-BA [n = 62], and controls [n = 199]), parents correctly detected dark yellow urine in all NC. Stool samples of 50 (86%) children with BA were unanimously labeled as pale by all observers. The average inter-item correlation showed good correlation between parents and trainee doctors of 0.77 and 0.64 with paramedical staff.

conclusionThe integrated NC card proposes to recognize neonatal cholestasis at an early stage irrespective of etiology. It is a major step towards public health benefit both at the community as well as physicians' levels to enable early detection and timely referral and management.
