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

objectiveEvaluate physiologic changes during digital retinal imaging (DRI) using near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS). STUDY

designProspective observational study of preterm infants undergoing retinopathy of prematurity screening via DRI using wide-field retinal camera. Cardiorespiratory (CR) and NIRS data were collected, trends correlated for changes and coefficient representing "slopes" of outcomes were plotted over time. The p value associated with each slope coefficient was tested to assess for slope differences from time of intervention (time = 0/or no slope).

resultsThirty-one preterm infants were included in the study. There were no significant changes in pre- and post-slopes for cerebral or mesenteric oxygenation, or CR indices with eye drop administration compared to baseline. DRI resulted in significant increase in post exam slope in cerebral oxygenation, mesenteric oxygenation and respiratory rate.

conclusionROP examination using DRI was well tolerated with slight improvements in cerebral and mesenteric perfusion without significant safety concerns.
