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

background and purposeCerebral venous oxygen saturation can be used as an indirect measure of brain health, yet it often requires either an invasive procedure or a noninvasive technique with poor sensitivity. We aimed to test whether cerebral venous oxygen saturation could be measured using quantitative susceptibility mapping, an MR imaging technique, in 3 distinct groups: healthy term neonates, injured term neonates, and preterm neonates. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe acquired multiecho gradient-echo MR imaging data in 16 neonates with perinatal asphyxia and moderate or severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (8 term age: average, 40.0 [SD, 0.8]  weeks' gestational age; 8 preterm, 33.5 [SD, 2.0]  weeks' gestational age) and in 8 healthy term-age controls (39.3 [SD, 0.6] weeks, for a total of

resultsThe mean magnetic susceptibility value of the cerebral veins was found to be 0.36 (SD, 0.04) ppm in healthy term neonates, 0.36 (SD, 0.06) ppm in term injured neonates, and 0.29 (SD, 0.04) ppm in preterm injured neonates. Correspondingly, the derived cerebral venous oxygen saturation values were 73.6% (SD, 2.8%), 71.5% (SD, 7.4%), and 72.2% (SD, 5.9%). There was no statistically significant difference in cerebral venous oxygen saturation among the 3 groups (

conclusionsQuantitative susceptibility mapping-derived oxygen saturation values in preterm and term neonates agreed well with values in past literature. Cerebral venous oxygen saturation in preterm and term neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, however, was not found to be significantly different between neonates or healthy controls.
