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

objectivesWe constructed reference intervals for end-tidal carbon monoxide (ETCOc) levels of neonates 28 STUDY

designThis is a prospective four-NICU study in Bangkok, Thailand, and Utah, USA.

resultsOf 226 attempted measurements, 92% were successful. Values from day 1 through 28 were charted and upper (>95th percentile) reference interval limits calculated. During the entire 28 days, the ETCOc upper reference intervals from babies in Bangkok were higher than those in Utah (p < 0.01). No differences were found due to sex, or earliest vs. latest gestation at birth (both p > 0.1). Similar to term neonates, preterm neonates in Bangkok and Utah had higher ETCOc values during the first 48 h after birth than thereafter (p < 0.01).

conclusionsUsing this methodology, and the reference interval chart, the hemolytic rate of preterm infants ≥28 weeks can be assessed.
