Association between ambient noise and physiologic changes in neonates with single-ventricle physiology after the Norwood procedure.
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 characterize ambient noise and acute physiologic changes in neonates after Stage 1 Norwood palliation. STUDY
designWe retrospectively analyzed synchronized sound and physiologic data from 12 neonates >36 weeks' gestation with a Sano or modified Blalock-Taussig-Thomas shunt during the first 48 postoperative hs.
resultAmong 1,014,403 audio observations, 25th percentile ambient sound levels were 69.05, 70.35, and 70.75 dBA during postoperative hs 0-12, 12-24, and 24-48, respectively, exceeding published recommendations. Overall, 3936 noisy events were identified. Time in the noisy range increased from 47 min during hs 0-12 to 266 min during hs 24-48. Noisy events were associated with small heart rate increases, somatic near-infrared spectroscopy decreases, and epoch-dependent changes in mean arterial blood pressure.
conclusionNoisy events were common after Norwood palliation and associated with small physiologic changes consistent with altered systemic perfusion. Prospective studies should evaluate whether noise reduction improves physiologic stability.
