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

Introduction: Extremely preterm infants face a high risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia from prolonged mechanical ventilation. Early extubation to noninvasive respiratory support may reduce lung injury. Evidence suggests that nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nasal IPPV) lowers reintubation compared with continuous positive airway pressure. Understanding neonatal intensive care unit providers' practice preference, an aspect of unit culture, can facilitate adoption of practice change. This quality improvement initiative aimed to reduce rates of reintubation within 7 and 10 days of first extubation among intubated infants born before 28 weeks' gestational age within 1 year of implementing the practice change and to assess changes in unit culture following guideline implementation. Methods: A guideline recommending extubation to nasal IPPV for infants born before 28 weeks' gestational age and/or 1250 g or less at birth was developed following measurement of staff practice preferences using the Neonatology Survey of Interdisciplinary Groups in Healthcare (NSIGHT) and internal data review, implemented in a level III neonatal intensive care unit in 2023. Data from January 2020-September 2025 were analyzed using statistical process control charts. The validated NSIGHT was repeated in August 2025 and compared with preimplementation results. Results: Over 5.5 years, 200 eligible infants were extubated. Reintubation rates within 7 days changed (from 39% in 2020 to 13% in 2025; Conclusions: A practice guideline, informed by NSIGHT results and internal data, was implemented to promote extubation of extremely preterm infants to nasal IPPV. Changes were achieved in clinical practice, reintubation rates, and unit culture.
