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

Aim: To determine short-term morbidity and mortality rates in the first state-wide Austrian neonatal cohort and comparison to (inter)national data. Methods: Observational, population-based cohort study, analyzing data of preterm infants (<32 + 0 weeks of gestation) born between 2007 and 2020 ( Results: Overall survival rate was 95%, survival free of major complications was 79%. Prevalence for BPD was 11.2%, surgical NEC 4.0%, severe IVH 4.6%, and for severe ROP 2.6%, respectively. In the extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGAN) born <28 weeks of gestation ( Conclusions: This study demonstrates a very low mortality rate that decreases over time. Short-term morbidities and survival free of major complications do not differ from (inter)national data in a similar group of very preterm infants. Standard operating procedures, simulation trainings and accordance to international trials may improve patient care and surpass center case loads.
