Preterm lung and brain responses to mechanical ventilation and corticosteroids.
Review 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 11 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
Mechanical ventilation is necessary to maintain oxygenation and ventilation in many preterm infants. Unfortunately, even short periods of mechanical ventilation can cause lung and airway injury, and initiate the lung inflammation that contributes to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The mechanical stretch leads to airway cell differentiation and simplification of the alveoli, and releases cytokines that cause systemic response in other organs. Mechanical ventilation also leads to brain injury (IVH, white and gray matter) and neuronal inflammation that can affect the neurodevelopment of preterm infants. In efforts to decrease BPD, corticosteroids have been used for both prevention and treatment of lung inflammation. Corticosteroids have also been demonstrated to cause neuronal injury, so the clinician must balance the negative effects of both mechanical ventilation and steroids on the brain and lungs. Predictive models for BPD can help assess the infants who will benefit most from corticosteroid exposure. This review describes the lung and brain injury from mechanical ventilation in the delivery room and chronic mechanical ventilation in animal models. It provides updates on the current guidelines for use of postnatal corticosteroids (dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, budesonide, budesonide with surfactant) for the prevention and treatment of BPD, and the effects the timing of each steroid regimen has on neurodevelopment.
