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

objectiveOur neonatal intensive care unit utilizes remote patient monitoring to facilitate hospital discharge with nasogastric tube (NGT) feeds. Program implementation, patient characteristics, and initial outcomes are described. STUDY

designData was collected prospectively in this implementation study. Descriptive statistics define weight gain, number of NGT feed days, number of days on monitoring, and physician time spent. Patient characteristics, readmissions, and implementation details are described.

resultsOne-hundred and four babies consented to and completed data collection. Average weight gain on monitoring was 31.4 g/day (SD 10.2). Eighty-nine babies (85.6%) achieved full oral feeds while on the program, requiring a median 5 NGT feed days (IQR 2-13) and a median 15 days on monitoring (IQR 11-27). Average physician time spent was 9.1 min per day (SD 3.7). Six babies (5.8%) had unscheduled readmissions while on the program.

conclusionRemote monitoring programs can facilitate discharge for babies with continued NGT needs.
