Predictive Value of the Early Spontaneous Movements for Preterm Infants' Neurodevelopmental Outcome at 12 Months' Corrected Age.
Article in Brain and behavior, 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
purposeMotor, cognitive, behavioral, and sensory problems may be seen in preterm infants. Early spontaneous movements' role in these developmental areas has yet to be sufficiently investigated. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Motor Optimality Score-Revised (MOS-R) in predicting motor, cognitive, language, and sensory developmental outcomes in premature infants.
methodsForty preterm children were examined. Early spontaneous movements were evaluated using the General Movement Assessment (GMA), which detects the MOS-R. Infants' language, cognitive, and motor development were assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition (Bayley-III). Sensory development was evaluated using the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants (TSFI).
resultsThe mean score for the MOS-R was 23.13 ± 4.6. Most infants (n = 31, 77.5%) showed typical fidgety movements. The sensitivity of the MOS-R for determining motor, cognitive, and language development at 12 corrected months was 86.7%, 80%, and 82%, respectively, and the specificity was 71.4%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. MOS-R scores did not predict sensory development outcomes (p > 0.05)
conclusionsAt three months, the MOS-R demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity in detecting motor, cognitive, and language functions in preterm infants at 12 months corrected age.
