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.
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
Background: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and fatty acid-binding protein-2 (FABP-2) in preterm infants on the incidence of NEC. Methods: Preterm infants with a birth weight <1,500 g and gestational age <34 weeks were included in this study. Biomarker examination was performed using the umbilical vein blood at birth (first sample). Biomarker examination was repeated if the infant developed symptoms of NEC using peripheral vein blood (second sample). Infants were observed for 14 days. If NEC did not exist, a biomarker examination was performed at 14 days. Results: This study included 30 preterm infants, nine infants experienced NEC. The values of GFAP, GDNF, and FABP-2 (median and range) in the group with NEC were higher than those in the group without NEC in both the first samples {GFAP [1.40 (0.20-6.50) vs. 0.30 (0.10-1.30) Conclusion: Increased GFAP, GDNF, and FABP-2 at birth are associated with NEC occurrence within two weeks of birth. These findings suggest that early-onset NEC is associated with intestinal injury that occurs during the perinatal or even prenatal period.
