Most babies born at a French hospital before 26 weeks survived with good outcomes.

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
aimThe aim of this French study was to determine the neonatal morbidity, mortality and neurodevelopmental outcomes when infants born at the limit of viability reached 2 years of corrected age. We then compared the results with national and international cohorts.
methodsThis study focused on 294 French infants born from 22 to 25 weeks of gestation in a single tertiary perinatal centre from January 2010 to December 2019. We used data on neonatal mortality and morbidity to calculate the survival rates of infants without moderate to severe neurodevelopmental and sensory deficits at 2 years of corrected age. These outcomes were compared with data from contemporary epidemiological studies of similar populations.
resultsNearly two-thirds (60.5%) of the infants survived to discharge, with varying rates based on their gestational ages, and 57.3% had no severe neonatal morbidity. The vast majority (90.4%) of the 166 alive and available at 2 years of corrected age were free of moderate to severe neurodevelopmental impairment. Our survival rates exceeded a national French cohort study, but were closely aligned with international cohorts.
conclusionThese findings highlight the importance of incorporating local data into ethical decision-making about life-saving treatment for infants at the limit of viability.
