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.

Abstract

backgroundMany preterm infants require supplemental oxygen in the newborn period but experience frequent fluctuations of their oxygen saturation levels. Intermittent episodes of hypoxia or hyperoxia increase the risk of complications. Compliance with achievement of oxygen saturation targets is variable, and the need for frequent adjustments of the inspired oxygen concentration increases workload. Closed-loop automated oxygen control systems (CLAC) improve achievement of oxygen saturation targets and reduce both episodes of hypoxia and hyperoxia and the number of manual adjustments. This study investigates whether CLAC compared with manual oxygen control reduces the duration of mechanical ventilation in preterm infants born at less than 31 weeks of gestation.

methodsThis randomised controlled trial performed at a single tertiary neonatal unit is recruiting 70 infants born at less than 31 weeks of gestational age and within 48 h of initiation of mechanical ventilation. Infants are randomised to CLAC or manual oxygen control from recruitment until successful extubation. The primary outcome is the duration of mechanical ventilation, and secondary outcomes are the percentage of time spent within target oxygen saturation ranges, the time spent in hypoxia or hyperoxia, the number of manual adjustments required, the number of days on oxygen, the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and the length and cost of neonatal unit stay. The study is performed following informed parental consent and was approved by the Yorkshire and the Humber-Sheffield Research Ethics Committee (protocol version 1.1, 13 July 2021). DISCUSSION: This trial will investigate the effect of CLAC on the duration of mechanical ventilation, which is an important clinical outcome as prolonged mechanical ventilation is associated with important adverse outcomes, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
