Yield of Early Examination for Aggressive Retinopathy of Prematurity: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Indian pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The national guidelines for evaluation of aggressive retinopathy of prematurity (AROP) in preterm neonates recommend the first examination at 2-3 weeks of age. This retrospective study investigated the yield of AROP checks performed at 3 weeks of postnatal age in neonates delivered between 23 and 28 weeks of gestation. Of the 260 eye examinations done at 3 weeks of age, none resulted in need for therapy for ROP over the ensuing week. Feed intolerance and cardiorespiratory events were noted after/during the AROP screening in one-third of the neonates. The median (Q1, Q3) time gap between the first AROP screening and any need for therapy was 8 (5, 9) weeks. This suggests that more evidence from prospective studies is required to corroborate the existing national guidelines for early retinal examinations.
