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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundOptimal starting oxygen concentration for delivery room resuscitation of extremely preterm infants (<29 weeks) remains unknown, with recommendations of 21-30% based on uncertain evidence. Individual patient randomized trials designed to answer this question have been hampered by poor enrolment. HYPOTHESIS: It is feasible to compare 30% vs. 60% starting oxygen for delivery room resuscitation of extremely preterm infants using a change in local hospital policy and deferred consent approach. STUDY

designProspective, single-center, feasibility study, with each starting oxygen concentration used for two months for all eligible infants. POPULATION: Infants born at 23 + 0-28 + 6 weeks' gestation who received delivery room resuscitation. Study interventions: Initial oxygen at 30% or 60%, increasing by 10-20% every minute for heart rate < 100 bpm, or increase to 100% for chest compressions. PRIMARY OUTCOME: Feasibility, defined by (i) achieving difference in cumulative supplied oxygen concentration between groups, and (ii) post-intervention rate consent >50%.

resultsThirty-four infants were born during a 4-month period; consent was obtained in 63%. Thirty (

conclusionRandomized control trial of 30% or 60% oxygen at the initiation of resuscitation of extremely preterm neonates with deferred consent is feasible.
