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

Purpose of Study: This study aimed to compare the prenatal ultrasound parameters- fetal lung biometry and pulmonary artery Doppler in preterm newborns for prediction of respiratory distress (RD). Methods: A prospective analytic study was conducted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in collaboration with Department of Neonatalogy. Fetal ultrasound and Doppler parameters were evaluated in women predisposed to have preterm delivery at or before 34 weeks. The neonates were followed for occurrence of RD. Result: Out of 100 study population, neonates who developed RD were taken as cases ( Conclusions: Both fetal lung biometry and pulmonary artery Doppler offer an excellent noninvasive approach for assessment of fetal lung maturity, clinically assessed by RD. On comparison of all the ultrasound parameters, fetal lung volume and At/Et ratio showed highest degree of accuracy in prediction of RD.
