1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundTo assess the baseline level of care for very preterm (VPI) and extremely preterm infants (EPI) in Shenzhen using the Triple Aim framework.

methodsThis retrospective analysis utilized data from the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Network (SNDN) for 2022-2023. We assessed mortality rate, major morbidity rate, benefit metric (a risk-adjusted composite morbidity index), and per capita costs.

resultsThe study included 995 infants from 11 NICUs in the SNDN, with an overall mortality rate of 7.5%. The rates for the eight major morbidities were: bronchopulmonary dysplasia 22.6%, grade III-IV intraventricular hemorrhage 5.2%, periventricular leukomalacia 2.2%, stage II-III necrotizing enterocolitis 3.9%, focal intestinal perforation 0.8%, stage 3-5 retinopathy of prematurity 3.8%, discharge weight < 10th percentile 12.1%, and late-onset infections 9.4%. The benefit metric ranged from 0.7 to 3.3, with per capita costs between $212.3 and $342.4.

conclusionThis study provides baseline data on NICU preterm infant management in Shenzhen using the Triple Aim framework, highlights areas for quality improvement.
