Does the use of higher versus lower oxygen concentration improve neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18-24 months in very low birthweight infants?
Article in Trials, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03825835 (Does the Use of Higher Versus Lower Oxygen Concentration Improve Neurodevelopmental Outcomes at 18-24 Months in Very Low Birthweight Infants - The HiLo-Trial), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundImmediately after birth, the oxygen saturation is between 30 and 50%, which then increases to 85-95% within the first 10 min. Over the last 10 years, recommendations regarding the ideal level of the initial fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO
methodsAn international cluster, cross-over randomized trial of initial FiO DISCUSSION: The use of supplementary oxygen may be crucial but also potentially detrimental to preterm infants at birth. The HiLo trial is powered for the primary outcome and will address gaps in the evidence due to its pragmatic and inclusive design, targeting all extremely preterm infants. Should 60% initial oxygen concertation increase survival free of major neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18-24 months corrected age, without severe adverse effects, this readily available intervention could be introduced immediately into clinical practice.
