Trial report in The Journal of pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02811263 (High-dose Erythropoietin for Asphyxia and Encephalopathy), which is not on this map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

objectiveTo assess whether high dose erythropoietin (Epo) treatment of cooled infants with neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy results in a higher risk of prespecified serious adverse events (SAEs). STUDY

designFive hundred infants born at ≥36 weeks of gestation with moderate or severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy undergoing therapeutic hypothermia were randomized to Epo or placebo on days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7. Pretreatment and posttreatment SAEs were compared with adjusted generalized linear models, with posttreatment models adjusted for the presence of a pretreatment SAE. Clinical risk factors and potential mechanisms for SAEs were also examined.

resultsThe rate of experiencing at least one posttreatment SAE did not significantly differ between groups (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 95% CI: 1.17, 0.92-1.49); however, posttreatment thrombosis was identified more often in the Epo group (n = 6, 2.3%) than the placebo group (n = 1, 0.4%; aRR, 95% CI: 5.09, 1.32-19.64). The rate of posttreatment intracranial hemorrhage identified at the treatment sites by either ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging was slightly elevated in the Epo group (n = 61, 24%) but not significantly different from the placebo group (n = 46, 19%; aRR, 95% CI: 1.21, 0.85, 1.72).

conclusionsA small increased risk of major thrombotic events was identified in the Epo treatment group.
