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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of IVH and its associated risk factors in premature newborn admitted to NICU in Southwestern Iran. METHODS AND MATERIALS: This cross-sectional study involved all premature newborn admitted to Namazee NICU, Southwestern Iran, during the year 2022. The diagnosis of IVH was confirmed using brain ultrasonography, following Papille's criteria. Demographic data and potential risk factors were collected and analyzed for two groups: neonate diagnosed with IVH and those without the condition.
resultsAmong the 275 preterm neonates studied (125 girls, 150 boys), the mean gestational age was 29.22 ± 1.44 weeks. The prevalence of IVH was found to be 20.4% within the first 7th day after birth. The recognized risk factors of IVH in our study were gestational age, pneumothorax, hypoxia, antenatal steroids, and transfusion of packed red blood cell. Duration of intubation and CPAP therapy were found to be other risk factors, too. The logistic regression model showed preterm newborns born between gestational age of 28
conclusionThe prevalence of IVH in NICU hospitalized newborns with a gestational age of ≤ 32 weeks was around 20%, which is consistent with other studies conducted in Iran. The findings emphasize the importance of enhanced antenatal care for early intervention for neonates born at early gestational age to reduce or prevent the risk of IVH.
