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

backgroundMask leak is common during newborn resuscitation, impacting delivered ventilation. Less is known about the effect of leak during assisted spontaneous breathing with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).

aimCompare CPAP performance in the presence of leak of two T-piece resuscitation devices, with differing design-imposed resistances: high resistance Neopuff and low resistance rPAP.

methodsDevices were tested on a term dynamic lung model (compliance 1.0 mL/cmH

results2437 breaths were analysed (1216 rPAP, 1221 Neopuff). Leak reduced PEEP, with the largest reduction at the highest leak and 9 cmH

conclusionThe delivered support differed between devices in the presence of leaks. rPAP maintained pressures closer to the set PEEP value at all leak levels, and higher leak flows were seen with the maintained distending pressure. Neopuff's higher resistance led to reductions in VT that were more pronounced at low leak levels.
