Assessment of hemostatic profile in neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis using Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM).
Observational study in Pediatric research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundThis study aimed to explore the hemostatic profile of neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) using Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and to investigate if ROTEM parameters have the capacity to play a role in the differentiation of NEC from sepsis at the disease onset.
methodsThis observational study included 62 neonates (mean gestational age 31.6 weeks and mean birth weight 1620g) hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit. The neonates were categorized in three groups: neonates with NEC (Bell stage II and above), neonates with sepsis and healthy neonates and they were matched 1:1:1 with regards to gestational age, delivery mode, and sex. Clinical, laboratory data as well as measurements of ROTEM parameters at disease onset were recorded.
resultsROTEM parameters differed between neonates with NEC and neonates with sepsis, indicating that NEC results in accelerated clot formation and higher clot strength compared to sepsis. The EXTEM CFT and A10 parameters demonstrated the highest diagnostic performance for NEC in terms of discrimination between NEC and sepsis (AUC, 0.997; 95% CI: 0.991-1.000 and 0.973; 95% CI: 0.932-1.000, respectively).
conclusionsNeonates with NEC manifested accelerated clot formation and higher clot strength compared to septic and healthy neonates, as these were expressed by ROTEM parameters. IMPACT: This work reports data on the hemostatic profile of neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) using Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and the capacity of ROTEM parameters in differentiating of NEC from sepsis at the disease onset. Neonates with NEC present acceleration of coagulation and exhibit a hypercoagulable profile, as this is expressed by ROTEM parameters, in comparison to septic and healthy neonates. ROTEM parameters demonstrated a good diagnostic capacity in differentiating NEC from sepsis at the disease onset.
