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

Congenital heart disease is the most common birth defect worldwide. Perinatal detection, either in utero or prior to hospital discharge is important for planning delivery, ordering adjunct testing, and planning for surgical or medical care. In countries with access to ultrasound screening, prenatal detection is highly accurate though with variable sensitivity and specificity around the world. Pulse oximetry screening, in some cases coupled with murmur auscultation in the nursery can also reach very high degrees of sensitivity for critical congenital heart disease. Use of the modalities per guidelines and recommendations is an important aspect of decreasing infant mortality and morbidity worldwide.
