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

Central venous catheterization is, now, one of the most routinely used procedures in the NICUs, helping during the care of very sick infants. Pericardial effusion is a very rare but severe complication, with a high mortality. The cases described are part of an ongoing retrospective study where the use of central catheters inserted in our surgical NICU, and its complications is being analyzed. 16 cases over 13 years are presented in this article, varying in severity from mild, self-resolving cases that were discovered during routine cardiac POCUS to cases with important hemodynamic impact associated with cardiac tamponade and cardiac arrest. Due to immediate intervention, only one of the cases led to catheter-related mortality and that was under particular conditions. Our aim is to highlight the severity of this complication, the importance of early intervention, and the impact of a highly technologized unit and widely available cardiac POCUS.
