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

introductionPreterm-born children have their normal in-utero lung development interrupted, thus are at risk of short- and long-term lung disease. Spirometry and exercise capacity impairments have been regularly reported in preterm-born children especially those who developed chronic lung disease of prematurity (CLD) in infancy. However, specific phenotypes may be differentially associated with exercise capacity. We investigated exercise capacity associated with prematurity-associated obstructive (POLD) or prematurity-associated preserved ratio of impaired spirometry (pPRISm) when compared to preterm- and term-controls with normal lung function. MATERIALS AND

methodsPreterm- and term-born children identified through home screening underwent in-depth lung function and cardiorespiratory exercise testing, including administration of postexercise bronchodilator, as part of the Respiratory Health Outcomes in Neonates (RHiNO) study.

resultsFrom 241 invited children, aged 7-12 years, 202 underwent exercise testing including 18 children with POLD (percent predicted (%)FEV

conclusionPreterm-born children with obstructive airway disease had the greatest impairment in exercise capacity, and significantly greater response to postexercise bronchodilators. These classifications can be used to guide treatment in children with POLD.
