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

aimTo evaluate the changes in oxygenation and heart rate (HR) stability among very low birth weight (VLBW) premature infants supported by non-invasive ventilation (NIV) during kangaroo mother care (KMC).

methodsA prospective observational pilot study. 30-min SpO

resultsTwenty-seven infants were included in the study (mean ± SD gestational age 27.6 ± 1.7, birth weight 1010 ± 237 g). Oxygenation stability and time spent in different SpO

conclusionDuring KMC among VLBW premature infants supported by NIV, oxygenation stability was maintained and HR stability improved. These findings should reassure care teams and parents regarding the safety of KMC among this population.
