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

objectiveTo determine the safety and effectiveness of sodium bicarbonate administration in the management of metabolic acidemia and short-term outcomes in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). STUDY

designRetrospective cohort study of neonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation and receiving therapeutic hypothermia. Demographics, pH, lactate, base deficit, treatment, MRI findings, seizure incidence, death prior to discharge were collected.

resultsThere was higher mortality (p = 0.010) and injury on MRI (p = 0.008)-primarily deep gray matter (p < 0.001) and cortical injury (p = 0.003)-in the bicarbonate group compared to controls in univariate analysis. The combined outcome of death or abnormal MRI was not significantly associated (OR 1.97, 95% CI 0.80-4.87, p = 0.141) with bicarbonate administration when adjusting for sex, 5-minute Apgar, and initial base deficit.

conclusionThis study demonstrated association between bicarbonate use after HIE and negative short-term outcomes. Future prospective trials could overcome the treatment bias limitation demonstrated in this retrospective study.
