Facilitated tucking versus Kangaroo mother care in alleviating BCG vaccination -associated pain in preterm neonates ≥34 weeks: a randomized controlled trial.

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.
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
Neonatal pain is a critical yet often under-recognized clinical issue, particularly in preterm infants who demonstrate heightened sensitivity due to neurological immaturity. Procedural pain, including vaccination, may have both immediate physiological effects and long-term neurodevelopmental consequences. The present study aims to compare the effectiveness of facilitated tucking and kangaroo mother care (KMC) in reducing pain during Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccination in preterm neonates with corrected gestational age ≥34 weeks. This randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) between 2022 and 2024. A total of 164 preterm neonates were randomized into facilitated tucking (
