Rapidly progressive necrotizing enterocolitis: Risk factors and a predictive model.
Article in Pediatric research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundRapidly progressive necrotizing enterocolitis (RP-NEC) is a particular subtype of NEC known for its rapid progression and high mortality rate. The objective of this study was to establish a predictive model for RP-NEC.
methodsThis was a retrospective single-center cohort study. Patients were newborn infants with NEC (Bell's stage ≥ IIB) admitted from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2023. The primary outcome was RP-NEC defined as the need for surgical intervention and/or death within 48 hours of the onset of NEC.
resultsTotally 334 newborn infants were included, among which 82 (24.6%) were RP-NEC cases with a gestation age 34.1 (31.0, 37.0) weeks and birth weight 2100 (1413, 2800) g. Plasma sodium <135 mmol/L, C-reactive protein ≥10 mg/L, platelet count <100 × 10
conclusionThe predictive model established on the above 6 items of RP-NEC is highly promising. IMPACT: Currently, there is a paucity of research on this specific type of severe necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) characterized by rapid progression. Our study was to investigate the risk factors associated with surgical intervention and/or death within 48 hours following onset in infants with NEC, establish a predictive model for infants with rapidly progressive NEC. The new data presented in this study was the ROC curve combining the above factors as well as hyponatremia.
