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

backgroundBPD, ROP, brain injury (severe IVH or PVL), NEC, and sepsis are independently associated with neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI).

objectivesEvaluate the contribution of BPD, ROP, brain injury, NEC, and sepsis, individually or in combination with BPD, on NDI at 18-24 months corrected age (CA).

methodsDemographic, NICU, and follow-up data from infants born ≤32 weeks gestational age with a birth weight <1500 grams were collected. NDI at 18-24 months CA was defined as blindness, deafness, or a composite score of <85 on the BSID-III. Univariate testing and logistic regression models were used.

resultsUnivariate analysis revealed a significant association between moderate and severe BPD, brain injury, NEC, and ROP with NDI. Logistic regression showed infants with brain injury or NEC had significantly greater odds of developing NDI.

conclusionsBPD with brain injury or NEC increases the risk of NDI. Infants with ≥3 comorbidities had significantly higher odds of NDI.
