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
Objective: Renal autoregulation, hemodynamic response, and endothelial dysfunction play significant roles in acute kidney injury (AKI) during perinatal asphyxia. A third mechanism of autoregulation, involving very low-frequency oscillations, has been described. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the power of the very low-frequency component of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and AKI during therapeutic hypothermia (TH) treatment in neonates with perinatal asphyxia. Study design: A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted on neonates with moderate and severe perinatal asphyxia. AKI was defined as a decrease of less than 33% in the serum creatinine level by day 3. The power of the very low-frequency component in the FFT was assessed by analyzing renal oxygen saturation using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), focusing on a frequency band of approximately 0.01 Hz. Bivariate analyses were performed to explore the association between the power of the very-low-frequency component and AKI. The predictive ability of this component for AKI was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Additionally, a generalized estimating equation (GEE) was developed to investigate whether changes in the power of the very-low-frequency component during treatment differed according to the presence of AKI. Results: A total of 91 patients were included in the study, of whom 15 (16.5%) developed AKI. Neonates with AKI exhibited a significantly lower power of the very low-frequency component on the second day of treatment ( Conclusion: Among neonates with perinatal asphyxia who developed AKI, a lower power of the very-low-frequency component in FFT (approximately 0.01 Hz) was observed on the second day of therapeutic hypothermia. This finding suggests that alterations in very-low-frequency oscillations may reflect endothelial dysfunction and contribute to the development of AKI, warranting further investigation in larger cohorts.
