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

backgroundWe examined whether physiological based cord clamping (PBCC) reduces oxygen-induced lung inflammation compared to immediate cord clamping (ICC) in preterm lambs ventilated with 100% oxygen for 10 min after birth.

methodsInstrumented, steroid exposed preterm lambs (125 ± 1 days' gestation) were randomized to receive 10 min of resuscitation with 100% oxygen before umbilical cord clamping or 30 s after ICC. After 10 min, oxygen was titrated to target SpO

resultsPBCC prevented the transient fall in SpO

conclusionPBCC prevents initial hypoxia and subsequent hyperoxia from 100% oxygen ventilation, but it does not reduce lung oxidative stress, inflammation, or injury, nor the risk or severity of lung damage during high-oxygen resuscitation. IMPACT: The appropriate oxygen level to use during the initial resuscitation of preterm infants during delayed cord clamping/physiological based cord clamping is not known. We found that providing prolonged high oxygen during physiological based cord clamping to preterm lambs does not protect the preterm lung from inflammation, injury or oxidative stress compared to immediate cord clamping. The use of prolonged high oxygen during the initial resuscitation of preterm newborns should be avoided irrespective of what cord clamping strategy is being used.
