Factors Associated With Failure of Non-invasive Ventilation in Preterm Neonates Requiring Initial Respiratory Support.

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
backgroundNon-invasive ventilation (NIV) modalities minimize the requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in preterm neonates, therefore improving neonatal outcomes, as IMV is linked to increased complications. However, NIV has demonstrated an elevated likelihood of failure, for which various studies have been done, but very little research is available addressing the factors that are responsible for NIV failure in resource-limited areas of developing nations. Understanding the underlying factors and their association with NIV failure in very and moderately preterm neonates at a tertiary care hospital would be important in devising targeted strategies to increase NIV success and newborn outcomes.
objectiveTo compare the following factors in neonates of 28-34 weeks gestational age with or without failure of NIV: fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO STUDY DESIGN AND
participantsThis was a longitudinal observational study. One hundred two preterm neonates with a gestational age of 28-34 weeks in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) requiring NIV support within 24 hours of admission.
methodsEligible newborns were re-evaluated at 72 hours after commencing NIV. Outcome was evaluated as success (no NIV or NIV with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)<8 cm H
resultsAbout 40 (39%) study participants reported NIV failure within 72 hours of initiating NIV. In the NIV failure group, male babies constituted 75% (P = 0.027), the median gestational age (IQR) was 29 (29-31) weeks (P = 0.015), the median birth weight (IQR) was 1088 (960-1293.5) grams (P = 0.003), and the median weight gain or loss (IQR) was a loss of 21 (-70.5 to 11.75) grams (P<0.001). Vaginal birth comprised 67.5% of the NIV failure group, showing greater failure rates than births out of lower segment cesarean section (LSCS) (P = 0.003) Conclusion: NIV failure showed a significant association with lesser gestational age, male sex, lower birth weight, vaginal method of delivery, and lesser weight gain during hospital stay.
