Correlation and predictive value of oxygenation and oxygen saturation indices in extremely preterm infants: a prospective study.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aims: This study aims to evaluate the association between the Oxygenation Index (OI) and the Oxygen Saturation Index (OSI) in extremely preterm infants. In addition, the study seeks to determine the predictive value of these indices for mortality in the first 7 days and Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) at 36 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA). Methods: This is a prospective observational study conducted at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh between October 2023 and May 2024, involving extremely preterm infants with clinical and ventilator data collected during the first 7 days of life. The predictive capabilities of OI and OSI for mortality within the first 7 days and BPD at 36 wks. PMA were assessed using Area Under the Curve (AUC) analysis, while associations between indices were explored through Spearman's correlation coefficient. Results: The study included 85 infants with a mean birth weight of 856 grams (SD = 243) and a mean gestational age of 26 weeks (SD = 1.8). There was a strong positive correlation between OI and OSI overall ( Conclusions: Measurements of OI and OSI within the first 24 h effectively predict mortality in extremely preterm infants. Additionally, daily mean values of OI and OSI from day 4 to day 7 were predictive of BPD at 36 weeks PMA. Further research is needed to refine these diagnostic thresholds to enhance neonatal care outcomes.
