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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesTo determine, in healthy children born prematurely with very low birth weight (VLBW), whether the cerebral morphometry of the frontal lobe is affected by foetal growth restriction (FGR) and extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR). SUBJECTS/

methodsA magnetic resonance imaging study was performed of 117 children during childhood within a cohort of VLBW infants. A neuropsychological study was performed using the WISC-V test and the Child Behaviour Checklist scale.

resultsIn children with FGR and EUGR, the volume of the lateral orbitofrontal cortex was reduced in both hemispheres. In this group of children, we observed smaller volumes of the pars opercularis in the right hemisphere.

conclusionsWe can conclude that FGR with EUGR in VLBW infants is associated with smaller volumes and surface area of the lateral orbitofrontal cortex in both hemispheres. These nutritional situations do not condition relevant structural modifications in the rest of the studied structures of the frontal lobe in our sample.
