Hyperinflation and its association with successful transition to home ventilator devices in infants with chronic respiratory failure and severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveTo estimate the association between lung hyperinflation and the time to successful transition to home ventilators in infants with sBPD and chronic respiratory failure. DESIGN/
methodsInfants with sBPD <32 weeks' gestation who received tracheostomies were identified. Hyperinflation was the main exposure. Time from tracheostomy to successful transition to the home ventilator was the main outcome. Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox proportional hazards were used to estimate the relationships between hyperinflation and the main outcome.
resultsSixty-two infants were included; 26 (42%) were hyperinflated. Eleven died before transition, and 51 successfully transitioned. Hyperinflation was associated with both mortality (31% vs 8.3%, p = 0.02) and an increased duration (72 vs. 56 days) to successful transition (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.38, 95% CI: 0.19, 0.76, p = 0.006). Growth velocity was similar after tracheostomy placement.
conclusionsIn infants with chronic respiratory failure and sBPD <32 weeks' gestation, hyperinflation is related to mortality and inpatient morbidities.
