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

objectiveDeep medullary vein thrombosis (DMVT) is increasingly recognized on neonatal brain MRI, but its predisposing factors and clinical characteristics remain poorly defined. This study aims to evaluate the clinical characteristics and associated imaging features of DMVT in neonates. STUDY

designWe performed a retrospective single-center study of infants admitted to the neonatal intensive-care unit who underwent brain MRI between 2015 and 2023.

resultOver the study period, 23 infants had medullary vein abnormalities on brain MRI; of them, 10 (five preterm and five term) were identified as DMVT. Among preterm infants, four (80%) had intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). All term infants demonstrated extensive (bilateral) DMVT.

conclusionMedullary vein abnormalities are not uncommon on neonatal brain MRI. In preterm infants, they are often associated with IVH, whereas term infants typically exhibit bilateral extensive DMVT. Larger studies are needed to further explore the pathogenesis and long-term outcomes.
