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

A 33-year-old gravida 2, para 1 woman was noted to have early intrauterine growth restriction at 22 weeks gestation and subsequently developed severe pre-eclampsia. She delivered a 460 g male neonate at 28 weeks. The infant was managed on non-invasive ventilatory support and was gaining weight on enteral feeds for the first eight weeks of life, at which point he developed necrotizing enterocolitis. He then developed severe pulmonary hypertension that was refractory to maximal medical management. He died at 10 weeks of life due to hypoxemic respiratory and heart failure. Placental pathology revealed a constellation of findings consistent with maternal vascular malperfusion. Lung autopsy revealed muscularized and hypertrophied pulmonary arterioles consistent with severe pulmonary hypertension. Von Willebrand factor immunofluorescent staining of autopsy specimens suggest parallels in extent of endothelial injury. This case study illustrates our evolving knowledge of the fetal origins of neonatal lung diseases.
