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

objectiveWe aimed to identify the reference interval (RI) of the postmenstrual age (PMA) at which lung oxygenation capacity is sufficiently stable in healthy preterm infants. DESIGN AND

settingA single-center, retrospective study involving a cohort of infants born at gestational age (GA) < 34 weeks who were discharged without respiratory support and experienced no short-term adverse respiratory outcomes. OUTCOME MEASURES: The PMA when oxygen supplementation was discontinued (Stop-O

resultsOf the 243 eligible infants, 176 meeting the Stable-SpO

conclusionsThe lung oxygenation capacity in most healthy preterm infants was near-term levels by 42 weeks PMA. Our data might be useful for determining the optimal timing for assessing respiratory function as well as the presence or absence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants.
