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

Aggressive retinopathy of prematurity (A-ROP), formerly known as aggressive posterior retinopathy of prematurity (APROP), occurs generally in extremely premature infants less than 28 weeks gestational age with extreme low birth weight of ≤1000g. We report a case of A-ROP occurring in a larger and less preterm infant. The possible risk factors that lead to the occurrence of A-ROP in this infant will be discussed. An infant born vaginally at 30 weeks gestational age weighing 1550g was diagnosed with A-ROP. Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening was performed due to the presence of risk factors: prematurity, low birth weight, received supplemental oxygen, intraventricular hemorrhage and history of maternal chorioamnionitis. Following a single injection of intravitreal ranibizumab, significant regression of A-ROP was observed. A-ROP was unexpected in this infant and was believed to have developed as a result of receipt of supplemental oxygen, maternal chorioamnionitis, and
