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

Respiratory symptomatology and echocardiographic features of pulmonary circulation exclusively guide therapy for a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants. Interrogations of systemic artery Doppler or the exploration of their links with respective end organ symptomatology is not routine practice. This brief report shows the relevance of 'systemic' symptoms and the assessment of 'systemic hypo-perfusion' (and their resolution with physiologically appropriate therapy) in decision-making. Future trials should include this often-ignored aspect in study designs and/or post-hoc analysis.
