Procedural closure of the patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants: a clinical practice guideline.

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
importanceTranscatheter closure of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is being increasingly adopted as an alternative to surgical PDA closure in preterm infants.
objectiveTo develop rigorous clinical practice guideline recommendations on procedural PDA closure in preterm infants.
methodsThe principles of the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) Evidence-to-Decision (EtD) framework were used to develop the guideline recommendations. An e-Delphi survey of 45 experts was conducted and recommendations that reached ≥75% agreement were accepted as consensus. MAIN RECOMMENDATIONS: Procedural PDA closure may be considered in extremely preterm infants (<28 weeks gestational age) requiring invasive mechanical ventilation >10 postnatal days and confirmed to have a large hemodynamically significant PDA, at centers with high local rates of death and/or bronchopulmonary dysplasia (conditional recommendation). If sufficient institutional expertise is available and patient characteristics are suitable, transcatheter PDA closure may be considered as the preferred approach over PDA ligation (conditional recommendation).
