Cause of Neonatal Admissions and Factors Associated with Treatment Outcome in Intensive Care Unit Mekelle City Public Hospitals, Ethiopia: Hospital Based Cross-Sectional 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
Objective: The aim of this was to assess cause of neonatal admission and factors associated with treatment outcome in intensive care unit in Mekelle city, public hospitals, Ethiopia. Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was employed among study participants from November 2021 to June 2022. Data were collected using structured data extraction checklist. SPSS V-20 was used for data analyzing. Binary logistic regression model was used with a 95% confidence interval and Result: Leading cause of neonatal admission were 83 (24.9%) sepsis followed by 59 (17.7%) respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), 31 (9.3%) meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS), and 31 (9.3%) perinatal asphyxia (PNA). Overall neonatal mortality was 38 (11.37%). Cesarean section (C/S; AOR: 2.9; 95% CI: 1.82, 4.68), breastfeeding non-initiation within 1 hour (AOR: 2.6; 95% CI: 1.09, 4.16), and neonatal resuscitation (AOR: 2.16; 95% CI: 1.70, 4.54) were factors associated with treatment outcome. Conclusion: The leading causes of neonatal admissions were sepsis, RDS, MAS, and PNA. Cesarean section (C/S) delivery, breastfeeding non-initiation within 1 hour and resuscitated neonate were factors associated with treatment outcome.
