The impact of initial hematocrit values after birth on peri-/intraventricular hemorrhage in extremely low birth weight neonates.

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
aimPeri-/intaventricular hemorrhage (P/IVH) is a common condition in preterm neonates and is responsible for substantial adverse neurological outcome especially in extremely low birth weight infants. As hematocrit after birth is a surrogate marker for blood volume, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of initial hematocrit values after birth on P/IVH development in extreme low birth weight (ELBW) neonates. PATIENTS AND
methodsA prospective cohort analysis of 92 eligible ELBW neonates was performed. The relationship between initial hematocrit values in ELBW neonates after birth and subsequent development of P/IVH was examined.
resultsTwenty-nine of 92 infants developed P/IVH. There were significant differences in initial Hct and maximum carbon dioxide (max PCO
conclusionHigher initial Hct at birth is associated with decreased P/IVH in ELBW infants. We hypothesized the argument that ELBW infants who have lower initial Hct at birth have less suboptimal volume status that predisposing lower cerebral blood flow and the resultant decrease in cerebral blood flow precede the development of P/IVH.
