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

Ultrasound is increasingly utilized during cardiac arrest in adult populations. The European Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care and the American Academy of Pediatrics have published guidelines on the use of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in neonates and children. However, there were no specific recommendations for its use during the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) algorithm. In this narrative review, we map the existing evidence to evaluate its role, potential benefits, and limitations of POCUS integration during neonatal resuscitation. The limited available studies, mostly case reports, suggest that POCUS can aid in the early identification of correctable or modifiable causes, evaluation of cardiac function, detection of heart rate or pulseless electrical activity, and guidance of resuscitative efforts. Significant gaps remain in knowledge, research studying its feasibility and benefits, and a lack of specific training and standardized protocols for integrating POCUS into the NRP algorithm, emphasizing the need for further research.
