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

Structured follow-up visits should be accessible for children at risk for developmental delay. Follow-up visits should include a serial neuromotor assessment in the first two years of life (e.g., 3-6, 12, 24 months corrected age), which are repeated during the transition to school. The diagnosis of neuromotor development may be prognostic for important skills later in life. The early diagnosis of a child's general movements can be helpful in planning appropriately for proper treatment and intervention. These diagnostic assessments should be conducted by qualified healthcare professionals. The evaluation of neuromotor developmental health is specified in the national guidelines and funded by either a national government or public or private healthcare insurance and based on standardized assessment scales. The aim of this study is to show what elements of follow-up visits are recommended.

objectivesThe group of patients for whom the structured follow-up systems are intended were children born very preterm (<32 weeks gestation) or full-term born children with severe neonatal complications. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe methods for monitoring neurodevelopment include the following: The General Movements Assessment (GMA), the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3), the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (BSID-4), and the Parent Report of Children's Abilities-Revised (PARCA-R).

resultsThe results of follow-up visits should be registered.

conclusionsThe benefits of follow-up neuromotor development assessments can be observed at school age and even in adulthood.
