Admission temperature and neonatal outcomes - single-centre experience in Saudi Arabia.
Article in International journal of pediatrics & adolescent medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the association between admission hypothermia (AH), neonatal mortality and major neonatal morbidities in preterm infants <33 weeks' gestation. An additional aim of the study was to examine changes in the prevalence of admission hypothermia after the initiation of a thermoregulation quality improvement (QI) project. Method: This is a retrospective cohort study of preterm infants < 33 weeks' gestation born at King AbdulAziz Medical City Riyadh (KAMC-R) between January 2017 to December 2020. Results: Eight-hundred infants were born during the study period. Four hundred and one infants (50.1%) had an admission temperature of <36.5 °C and a further 399 (49.9%) had an admission temperature of >36.5 °C. The mortality before discharge was 15.7% in infants with AH compared to 4.8% among those with an admission temperature above 36.5 °C. This remained statistically significant after adjustments for gestational age and maternal PET status on a multivariate analysis ( Conclusion: Preterm infants with AH suffered higher mortality and greater neonatal morbidities.
