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

aimTo examine associations between the deep medullary vein white matter injury global severity scoring system and neurodevelopmental impairment.

methodsThis is a prospective observational cohort study of infants born at ≥32 weeks, diagnosed with deep medullary vein thrombosis and infarction on neuroimaging in the first month of life. Developmental testing was performed using validated measures for early, preschool, and school-age follow-up.

resultsNineteen (37%) patients had major neurodevelopmental impairment. Global severity score was higher among patients with neurodevelopmental impairment (21.6 vs 13.4,

conclusionsResults suggest a need for targeted clinical surveillance for patients with a high global severity score and/or asymmetric, predominantly right cerebral white matter injury and for those who develop epilepsy.
