Effect of delayed cord clamping on cerebral hemodynamics in preterm infants.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Unstable cerebral hemodynamics is an important cause of intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants. The increased blood flow of delayed cord clamping (DCC) compared to immediate cord clamping (ICC) is equivalent to 1/3-1/4 of newborn blood volume. Our objective was to assess whether the increased blood flow causes fluctuations in cerebral blood flow and how. Methods: This experiment was a prospective, observational study. Neonatologists selected preterm infants eligible for inclusion and exclusion, and divided them into DCC group and ICC group according to the way of umbilical cord ligation performed by obstetrics department, and matched them 1:1 according to gestational age. The peak systolic velocity （PSV) ，end diastolic velocity (EDV)，and resistance index (RI) of middle cerebral artery was measured by Mindray M9 color ultrasonic diagnostic instrument within 1 h, 24±1 h, 48±1 h, 72±1 h, respectively. Results: There was no significant difference in PSV, EDV and RI in middle cerebral artery between DCC group and ICC group (P > 0.05). There were no significant differences between groups and time (P > 0.05). The hemoglobin and hematocrit in DCC group were higher than those in ICC group within 2 h after birth (P < 0.05). (P > 0.05). Conclusion: DCC can increase hemoglobin and hematocrit in preterm infants, but does not cause cerebral blood flow fluctuation within a certain range. DCC is a safe method of placental transfusion.
