Outcomes, safety and health economics of introduction of video laryngoscopy-assisted less invasive surfactant administration.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 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
backgroundLess invasive surfactant administration (LISA) is associated with better outcomes than InSurE (Intubation-Surfactant administration-Extubation). Video-laryngoscopy (VL) facilitates intubation in neonates, however safety and cost-effectiveness of VL-assisted LISA have not been evaluated.
methodsWe compared the outcomes of infants receiving VL-assisted LISA (n = 67) with a historical cohort of infants who received InSurE (n = 52). Secondary aims were to evaluate safety and cost-effectiveness.
resultsVL-assisted LISA was associated with reduced duration of non-invasive ventilation (NIV), reduced duration of oxygen therapy, reduced composite days on NIV and mechanical ventilation (MV), and shorter NICU stay with lower hospital costs for infants ≥29 weeks GA, compared to InSurE. In the VL-assisted LISA group, 66% of the tracheal catheters were placed on the first attempt and 16% of infants displayed desaturation during placement.
conclusionIn infants ≥29 weeks GA, VL-assisted LISA reduced exposure to NIV, oxygen, NIV and MV combined, length of stay, and cost of care compared to InSurE.
