Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation as a rescue therapy after nasal continuous positive airway pressure failure in infants with respiratory distress syndrome.
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 2 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
objectiveEvaluate whether nasal intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) as rescue therapy after initial nasal continuous positive airway (NCPAP) failure reduces need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
designRetrospective cohort involving 156 preterm infants who failed initial NCPAP and were then submitted to NIPPV rescue therapy and classified into NIPPV success or failure, according to need for IMV.
resultOf all infants included, 85 (54.5%) were successfully rescued with NIPPV while 71 (45.5%) failed. The NIPPV success group had significantly lower rates of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, peri/intraventricular hemorrhage, patent ductus arteriosus and greater survival without morbidities (all p ≤ 0.01). Infants who failed NIPPV had earlier initial NCPAP failure (p = 0.09). In final logistic regression model, birthweight ≤1000 g and need for surfactant remained significant factors for NIPPV failure.
conclusionNIPPV rescue therapy reduced the need for IMV in infants that failed NCPAP and was associated with better outcomes.
