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

Premature infants are prone to dyspnea after birth due to immature development, and some infants require respiratory assistance. However, the risk factors for respiratory assistance in premature infants are rarely reported. The present study enrolled 3,394 premature infants (665 infants had been provided with respiratory assistance and 2,729 had not used respiratory assistance) to retrospectively analyze the risk factors associated with respiratory aid. The multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that placental abnormality [odds ratio (OR)=1.284; P=0.048], the male sex (OR=0.696; P=0.001), delivery via cesarean section (OR=1.538; P<0.001), low 1-min Apgar score (OR=0.727; P<0.001), low birth weight (OR=0.999; P=0.005) and low gestational age (OR=0.616; P<0.001) were independent risk factors for respiratory assistance in premature infants. Overall, a number of risk factors, including placental abnormality, cesarean section, low 1-min Apgar score, low birth weight and small gestational age, were identified for respiratory assistance in premature infants. By conducting a risk assessment of risk factors at birth and using this information to provide timely respiratory assistance, the survival rates of premature infants may increase.
