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

backgroundthe current study aims to evaluate the reliability and repeatability of a new PT based on Center of Pressure (CoP) movement analysis in a repeated measures design.

methodsthe examination consisted of two parts: (1) the videotaping of General Movements (GMs) and GMs assessment (GMA) and (2) Posturometric Tests (PT) in supine and prone positions. PTs were performed twice (by two investigators) in the supine and prone positions using a force plate. Based on the GMA results, infants were stratified into two groups: (1) infants with normal FMs (indicating normal future motor outcomes) (

resultsthe comparative analysis between the groups of infants with normal FMs and abnormal FMs in PT in supine showed significant differences for all parameters that described spontaneous CoP displacement. The reliability analysis determined that all ICCs of the outcomes presented at least a moderate level of reliability. The ICCs were higher for outcomes of PT performed in the supine position than in the prone position. The ICCs were higher for outcomes of PT performed in infants with abnormal vs. normal FMs.

conclusionsalthough the current study yielded promising results, further longitudinal research in preterm infants should identify whether altered postural control parameters prognose future motor outcomes.
