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

objectivesTo investigate the impact of proactive perinatal care on periviable preterm infants before and after its implementation.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study was conducted over a period of 10 y, from 2013 to 2019, referred to as Phase I, and from 2020 to 2022, referred to as Phase II. A total of 162 eligible infants born between 22

resultsA total of 125 infants were born in phase I, and 37 infants in phase II received proactive care with minimal handling. The mortality decreased from 54.4% to 24.3% (P = 0.001). The composite outcomes of severe brain injury or death, sepsis or death and necrotizing enterocolitis or death were also improved with proactive care. Gestational age [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 0.900; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.836-0.970], air leak syndrome (aOR 4.958; 95% CI, 1.681-14.624), massive pulmonary hemorrhage (aOR 4.944; 95% CI, 2.055-11.893), and birth in phase II (aOR 0.324; 95% CI, 0.115-0.912) were independently associated with mortality.

conclusionsThe implementation of proactive care with minimal handling resulted in an increased survival rate and a reduction in the combined morbidities between the two time periods. The provision of proactive perinatal care with minimal handling is crucial for improving both the survival rates and clinical outcomes of these vulnerable infants.
