Placental and Neonatal Serum Leptin Levels in Premature Infants After Phototherapy: Are They Determining Factors for the Safe Indication of Passive Exercises?

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
Purpose: To analyze leptin levels in placental tissue and premature infants undergoing phototherapy and to evaluate the potential for prescribing passive exercise after phototherapy in this population. Patients and Methods: This analytical, longitudinal, prospective cohort study included 108 parturients and their respective premature infants. Variables examined included weight, gestational age, body mass index, sex, serum leptin levels in placental tissue, serum bilirubin levels, and reticulocyte count. Results: When comparing each group to a leptin threshold, statistically significant differences were observed at all evaluated time points for placental leptin levels (p < 0.001). Additionally, reticulocyte count decreased in relation to rebound time (p < 0.004). No correlations were found between leptin/bilirubin levels, leptin/reticulocytes, onset of nutrition, and BMI/leptin levels. Conclusion: The findings regarding leptin levels suggest that prescribing passive exercises to premature infants undergoing phototherapy may be feasible because this intervention did not increase leptin levels.
