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

Aim: To study the incidence and risk factors associated with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) at a tertiary care centre in Western India. Methods: A retrospective review of records of both referred and babies born in our hospital who were screened for ROP within the last 21 months at a tertiary care centre was done. The newborns were screened as per National Neonatology Forum of India guidelines. ROP was classified according to the International Classification for Retinopathy of Prematurity criteria. Results: A total of 167 neonates were screened with an incidence of ROP of 26.9%. The mean gestational age (GA) and mean birth weight (BW) were 31.89 ± 2.824 weeks and 1538.11 ± 530.84 gm. The mean BW of neonates having any ROP was significantly lower (1296.98gm, p < 0.001), and the mean GA was also significantly lower in ROP babies (30.67 weeks, p < 0.001). O2 supplementation, RDS, IVH, and NEC were the systemic risk factors that significantly correlated with ROP p-value <0.001. On analysis of the correlation of stage of ROP with BW and GA, a significant correlation of -0.307 (p < 0.001) and -0.283 (p < 0.001) was found. Conclusion: The incidence of ROP in this study is similar to that reported in the literature from other regions. Other than LBW and GA, oxygen supplementation, RDS, IVH, and NEC were significant risk factors associated with ROP.
