Trends and predictors of in-hospital survival among asphyxiated neonates admitted at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, Northern Tanzania: Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
Background: Globally about 9 million neonates are diagnosed with birth asphyxia yearly. In Tanzania 40.6% of all neonatal deaths are attributed to birth asphyxia. There is scarcity of evidence on predictors of in-hospital survival among asphyxiated neonates in Tanzania, therefore study aimed to determine trends and predictors of survival among neonates who sustained birth asphyxia at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center, Northern Tanzania. Method and materials: This was a hospital-based retrospective cohort study, conducted at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center among 7,783 admitted asphyxiated neonates from 2000 to 2022. The predictors of survival were determined by using the Weibull survival regression model and the statistically significant results were declared at a Results: Overall finding from this study showed significant increase in the trends of survival from birth asphyxia from 2000 to 2022, from 68% to 80% respectively ( Conclusion: There is a need for health professionals to remain vigilant and promptly assess and stabilize the airway, breathing, and circulation, initiate resuscitation, provide oxygen, administer medications such as aminophylline to neonates who are diagnosed with birth asphyxia.
