Sedation and Pain Management in Neonates Undergoing Therapeutic Hypothermia for Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a common cause of significant neonatal morbidity and mortality. The stronghold of the treatment for moderate-to-severe HIE is therapeutic hypothermia (TH) which provides a neuroprotective effect. However, it also is associated with pain and stress. Moreover, neonates with HIE are subjected to a significant number of painful procedures. Untreated pain during the early neonatal period may entail future challenges such as impaired brain growth and development as well as impaired pain sensitivity later in life. Hereby, the provision of adequate sedation and alleviation of pain and discomfort is essential. There are currently no universally accepted guidelines for sedation and pain management for this patient population. In this review, we highlight non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic methods currently in use to provide comfort and sedation to patients with HIE undergoing TH.
