Bronchopulmonary dysplasia: its relationship to invasive modes of ventilation and the magnitude of respiratory support.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo determine whether the magnitude of respiratory support mediates the association between intubation/invasive ventilation and the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). STUDY
designObservational study of BPD (diagnosed at 40 weeks' postmenstrual age) using Poisson regression and Mplus mediation analyses in 544 consecutively admitted inborn infants <28 weeks' gestation.
resultsA change in guidelines emphasizing noninvasive ventilation led to a significant decrease in intubation rates. However, neither the magnitude of support nor the incidence of BPD-40 was decreased. While invasive ventilation at 1, 7 and 14 days was significantly associated with BPD-40 in multivariable regression and mediation analyses, its association appeared to be mediated by the magnitude of support (especially mean airway pressure), with no direct effect from the intubation/invasive ventilation.
conclusionReducing intubation/invasive ventilation may not impact the rate of BPD-40 unless the infant's need for high levels of respiratory support (even if delivered noninvasively) is also minimized.
