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: We aimed to assess neonatal survival and identify predictors of mortality among infants admitted to a tertiary hospital in Iran between 2016 and 2022. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 7,255 neonates admitted to a tertiary hospital in Iran. Results: Overall neonatal and preterm mortality rates were 6.6% and 9.1%, respectively, with a declining trend across various medical conditions. Multiple Cox regression analysis revealed several predictors of death as gestational age, birth weight, APGAR scores, congenital defects, sepsis, respiratory disorders, intervention treatments, and antibiotic administration history. Implications for Practice: Although survival rates have improved, neonatal mortality in Iran remains a concern. The leading causes of death-congenital anomalies, sepsis, and respiratory disorders-highlight the need for strengthened antimicrobial stewardship and infection control. Managing invasive procedures is essential to prevent hospital-acquired infections. Conclusion: Further studies are needed to clarify the causal relationship between multiple antibiotic regimens and neonatal survival.
