Perinatal care with a view to preventing cerebral palsy.
Review in Developmental medicine and child neurology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Birth prevalence of cerebral palsy (CP) is declining in high-income countries, to as low as 1.4 per 1000 live births in the most recent international reports. This represents a 35% reduction in birth prevalence over a 15-year period. This reduction is underpinned by a heightened focus of attention towards all aspects of CP, including: increased awareness, better data collection, development of national networks and registries, an explosion of research in basic science, perinatal care, neonatal neurology, public health, early detection, and targeted early intervention. Quick uptake of evidence into practice has ensued and overall improvements in clinical care occurred concurrently. It is anticipated that with continued partnerships with families, ongoing research driving further clinical improvement and vice versa, birth prevalence and severity of CP will further decline and the focus will shift to prevention in low- and middle-income countries. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS: Research in the field of perinatal care and cerebral palsy (CP) prevention has increased significantly. In high-income countries, increased awareness of CP and scientific advances have improved clinical care. Population-based registers have limitations but remain the best mechanism to quantify birth prevalence of CP and accurately track trends. There have been recent reductions in the birth prevalence of CP.
