Infant mortality and causes of infant deaths in 2018, in Adana, Turkey.
Article in Turkish archives of pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveUnderstanding the etiologies of infant deaths and predicting risk begins with defining cases correctly. The collection and analysis of reliable statistical data are an essential part of comprehensive investigations on local and national levels. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis was a descriptive study. Diagnosis as a cause of infant death and other factors were examined. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 17.0 program. Frequencies and means were computed.
resultsAccording to the data of 35 227 live births and 288 infant deaths during the year, the infant mortality rate of Adana province was 8.2 per thousand. We found that the most common cause of infant death was sepsis (26.0%). Other causes of infant death included prematurity and problems related to prematurity (12.6%), congenital heart disease and complications (12.6%), respiratory problems (11.9%), congenital anomaly (9.8%), immaturity (<750 g birth weight or 24 gestational weeks) (8.4%), and sudden death (6.0%).
conclusionIn our descriptive study, we presented the causes of infant mortality to minimize infant mortality due to preventable causes. Efforts to reduce infant mortality should be supported and improved by health management. Emphasis on prenatal care is one of the important things to reduce premature births.
