Neonatal therapy principles during transition from neonatal intensive care unit to home: A modified Delphi study.
Article in Developmental medicine and child neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
aimTo establish expert consensus on key principles for therapist-supported interventions supporting infants born preterm and their families during the transition from neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to home in the USA.
methodA diverse, interdisciplinary panel of experts evaluated the use of key intervention principles. A modified Delphi technique was used to seek opinions from independent and relevant interdisciplinary experts on the clarity of terminology, efficacy, and feasibility of implementing these intervention principles during the NICU-to-home transition.
resultsAfter our team consensus, one round of surveys was required to reach expert consensus. Twenty-four experts, representing a variety of disciplines, responded to the survey. Results showed strong consensus on four key therapist-supported interventions: building caregiver-child relationships; optimizing infant development; education and knowledge sharing; and enriched environments.
interpretationThis research provides valuable insights into key therapist-supported interventions that may be used during the NICU-to-home transition to address the needs of high-risk infants and the well-being of their families. Findings will inform the development of streamlined and effective interventions, improving child and family outcomes during this critical transition period.
