Uncertainties in the NICU: a scoping review to inform a tailored taxonomy.
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 3 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
Our objective was to conduct a scoping review of the literature to inform a modified taxonomy of uncertainty in the NICU, for the purpose of better identifying and defining different experiences of uncertainty for parents and medical teams. We conducted a systematic literature search for studies examining an element of uncertainty in the NICU. Data extraction was guided by Han's taxonomy of uncertainty and a thematic analysis informed the modified taxonomy. We included 55 articles, leading to three major alterations of Han's taxonomy. We believe this modified taxonomy of uncertainty in the NICU provides a more nuanced understanding of the specific uncertainties faced in this context, leading to a better understanding of the different needs of families and medical teams. It also highlights the need for targeted strategies to further explore and manage these uncertainties.
