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

objectiveTo evaluate the association between severity of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) among neonates with radiographically identified deep medullary vein thrombosis (DMVT) and to develop an MRI grading system to help predict clinical outcomes. STUDY

designWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of infants admitted to a single, tertiary care hospital and diagnosed as having DMVT identified by brain MRI from January 1990 to March 2023. Clinical characteristics, MRI features, and neurodevelopmental assessments were analyzed. An MRI grading system was created to categorize the severity of radiographic injury as mild, moderate, or severe.

resultsAmong 63 neonates diagnosed with DMVT, 41 exhibited moderate to severe MRI lesions. These patients were more likely to experience NDI than those with mild lesions (adjusted OR 24.3, 95% CI 4.7-180.2, P < .001). Follow-up data were available for 52 infants, of whom 40.4% developed NDI. MRI severity emerged as the strongest predictor of impaired outcomes, independent of other clinical factors such as gestational age, Apgar score, or seizures at presentation.

conclusionsNeonates with moderate or severe DMVT on MRI are at risk for NDI. The proposed MRI grading system may be a valuable classification and prognostication tool for clinicians and researchers managing DMVT in neonates.
