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 investigate the physical growth and neurodevelopmental indicators of Gestational age(GA)< 32 weeks infants at 6 months corrected age.

methodsThis study included 116 infants, retrospectively analyzing GA<32 weeks infants who discharged from Tianjin Central Hospital of Gynecology and Obstetrics between April 2023 and August 2024. General movements (GMs) assessment was performed at 1 month corrected age. Physical Growth Indicators, GMs and Gesell Developmental Diagnosis Scale (GDDS) assessments were conducted at 3 and 6 months corrected age.

resultsThe proportion of abnormal GMs at 3 months corrected age (3.44%) was lower than that at 1 month corrected age (86.21%).At 6 months corrected age, the proportion of infants with a developmental quotient (DQ) ≤ 75 was 43.10%, lower than 69.82% at 3 months corrected age. GA and multiple births were independent risk factors for DQ ≤ 75 at 3 months corrected age. GA, early intervention, and intracranial hemorrhage were independent risk factors for DQ ≤ 75 at 6 months corrected age.

conclusionAt 6 months corrected age, GA<32 weeks infants exhibited greater neurodevelopmental outcome. Standardized follow-up and early neurodevelopmental interventions should be further strengthened for preterm infants to reduce the occurrence of adverse outcomes.
