Noninvasive Respiratory Support or Intubation during Stabilization after Birth and Neonatal and Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Infants Born Preterm at 23-25 Weeks of Gestation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between noninvasive respiratory support (NRS) or tracheal intubation (TI) during stabilization in infants born at 23-25 weeks of gestation and severe brain injury (sBI) or death, and significant neurodevelopmental impairment (sNDI). STUDY DESIGN: weeks of gestation in Canada. We compared infants successfully managed with NRS or TI during 30 minutes after birth. The primary outcomes were sBI or death before discharge, and sNDI among survivors with follow-up data at 18-24 months corrected age. The associations between exposures and outcomes were assessed using logistic regression models, and propensity score-matched analyses. RESULTS: The mean (SD) of gestational age and birth weight were 24.6 (0.6), 24.3 (0.7) weeks [P < .01], and 757 (173), 705 (130) grams [P < .01] in the NRS, and tracheal intubation (TI) groups, respectively, and 77% of infants in the NRS group were intubated by 7 days of age. sBI or death occurred in 25% (283/1118), and 36% (722/2012) of infants in the NRS and TI groups, respectively (aOR and 95% CI 0.74 [0.60, 0.91]). Among survivors with follow-up data, sNDI occurred in 17% (96/551), and 23% (218/937) of infants in the NRS and TI groups, respectively (aOR [95% CI] 0.77 [0.60, 0.99]). In the propensity score-matched analyses (NRS vs TI), results were consistent for sBI or death (OR [95% CI] 0.72 [0.60, 0.86]), but not for sNDI (OR [95% CI] 0.78 [0.58, 1.05]). CONCLUSIONS: Infants born at 23-25 weeks who were successfully managed with NRS, compared with TI, in the first 30 minutes after birth had lower odds of sBI or death before discharge, but had no significant differences in neurodevelopmental outcomes among survivors.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
