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

backgroundCranial Doppler ultrasonography (DS) is a non-invasive method for evaluating cerebral hemodynamics in neonates with perinatal asphyxia (PA). This study aimed to assess whether cerebral vascular resistance indices (RIs) measured within the first 24 h of life can predict the severity of brain injury.

methodsDS was performed on the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) between 6 and 24 h after birth in newborns diagnosed with PA. Prognostic value was evaluated by comparing RI values with cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results.

resultsOf the 107 infants included in the study, 11 (10.3%) had severe brain damage, 27 (25.2%) had mild and 20 (18.7%) had moderate changes. The mean ACA RI was 0.61 ± 0.15 in the severe group and 0.70 ± 0.12 in the mild-moderate group (

conclusionsEarly ACA and MCA RI measurements via Doppler ultrasonography may serve as valuable predictors of brain injury severity in neonates with PA and should be considered alongside other clinical and imaging findings.
