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

objectiveThere is a wide range of risk factors predisposing to the onset of neonatal encephalopathy (NE), including maternal antepartum/intrapartum comorbidities or events. However, few studies have investigated the difference in the impact of acute and chronic diseases on forecasting NE, which could assist clinicians in choosing the best course of action to prevent NE or reduce its severity and complications. In this study, we aimed to engineer features based on acute and chronic diseases and assess the differences of the impact of acute and chronic diseases on NE prediction using machine learning models. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe used ten years of electronic health records of mothers from a large academic medical center to develop three types of features: chronic disease, recurrence of an acute disease, and temporal relationships between acute diseases. Two types of NE prediction models, based on acute and chronic diseases, respectively, were trained with feature selection. We further compared the prediction performance of the models with two state-of-the-art NE forecasting models. The machine learning models ranked the three types of engineered features based on their contributions to the NE prediction.

resultsThe NE model trained on acute disease features showed significantly higher AUC than the model relying on chronic disease features (AUC difference: 0.161, p-value < 0.001). The NE model trained on both acute and chronic disease features achieved the highest average AUC (0.889), with a significant improvement over the best existing model (0.854) with p = 0.0129. Recurrence of "known or suspected fetal abnormality affecting management of mother (655)" was assigned the highest weights in predicting NE.

conclusionsMachine learning models based on the three types of engineered features significantly improve NE prediction. Our results specifically suggest that acute disease-associated features play a more important role in predicting NE.
