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

objectiveTo assess the association between day-2 cardiac function and brain injury in neonates with HIE undergoing therapeutic hypothermia. STUDY

designA prospective single-center study (2016-2021) including neonates ≥36 weeks gestation with moderate to severe HIE treated with TH. Brain injuries were evaluated using MRI and a validated scoring system, and logistic regression identified cardiovascular predictors.

resultsAmong 55 neonates, 33 (60%) had brain injuries. Day-2 ventricular dysfunction was found in 16 (29%). Neonates with brain injuries had higher gestational age, more severe aEEG patterns, and higher Sarnat scores. Significant predictors of brain injury included higher gestational age, severe initial aEEG patterns, and increased left ventricular strain. No significant differences were observed in standard echocardiography measurements.

conclusionSevere initial aEEG patterns and increased left ventricular strain, rather than day-2 cardiac dysfunction, were more predictive of brain injury in HIE neonates. Early assessments may further clarify the role of hemodynamics.
