Non-invasive ventilation in the delivery room.
Review in European journal of pediatrics, 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
Non-invasive respiratory support in the delivery room (DR) is a relatively new concept. Now, instead of immediately intubating most babies in respiratory distress, initial use of nasal CPAP or intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is recommended, to prevent lung injury. How to best implement non-invasive ventilation is still under investigation. What are the best levels of nasal CPAP, is NIPPV better to employ, and how can we synchronize breaths with the infant's efforts are all questions that are not yet answered.
conclusionThis article reviews the history of DR respiratory resuscitation, and explores the questions that yet remain as to the best approach. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Nasal CPAP is recommended as the first intervention for the neonate requiring respiratory support in the delivery room. • Ideal ways to provide nCPAP, NIPPV, surfactant, and prolonged respiratory support are not yet known but are being widely investigated. WHAT IS NEW: • Non-invasive intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is now often recommended in the DR either if nCPAP fails, or at the start of respiratory support. • Important areas for future research include how best to provide non-invasive support, and what may be effective in the extremely low birth weight infant population.
