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

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is crucial for supplying the brain with the oxygen and nutrients necessary for its proper development and metabolism. The poor autoregulation of CBF is believed to play a role in the development of brain injury in preterm infants. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of CBF in perinatal brain injury. In this retrospective study, 108 healthy preterm infants (HP), 26 infants with intracranial hemorrhage (IVH), and 16 infants with periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) were included. CBF was assessed using arterial spin labeling imaging in the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital cortex, as well as the basal ganglia and thalamus. After adjusting for gestational age, postmenstrual age (PMA) at MRI scan, and birth weight, the PVL hemispheres exhibited consistently reduced CBF in various gray matter regions compared to the HP and IVH hemispheres, including the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital cortex, as well as the basal ganglia and thalamus. The comparison of HP and IVH hemispheres revealed decreased CBF in IVH hemispheres in the frontal, parietal, occipital cortex, as well as in the basal ganglia and thalamus. In multifactor linear regression models, the PMA at MRI scan, 5 min Apgar score, brain injury, and neonatal necrotizing stage ≥ 2 are independent factors affecting cerebral perfusion.
