Montelukast Sodium to Prevent and Treat Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Very Preterm Infants: A Quasi-Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common chronic lung disease in preterm infants and lacks effective methods for prevention and treatment. The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of montelukast in preventing or treating BPD in preterm infants. The preterm infants with BPD risk factors were divided randomly into a montelukast group and a control group. In the montelukast group, preterm infants were given 1 mg/kg of montelukast sodium daily. There was no placebo in the control group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of moderate or severe BPD between the two groups (31.8% vs. 35%). The duration of respiratory support in the montelukast group was shorter than that in the control group (36.4 ± 12.8 d vs. 43.1 ± 15.9 d,
