Diabetic foot screening: why is it neglected?
Review in International wound journal, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Understanding reasons for the neglect of foot screening during the annual review of people with diabetes enables the development of solutions for this omission. This study explores the reasons within the context of health care delivery systems in terms of the professional, social, political and economic aspects of this screening. Information was obtained through reviewing publications on diabetic foot and health care reform. The omission of annual foot examination for people with diabetes is attributed to the nature of diabetes-related foot problems, people with diabetes, health care professionals and the current structure of health care delivery systems. Increasing the adherence to foot screening for those with diabetes requires short- and long-term strategies. Short- and long-term strategies for reminding patients and staff about foot screening are suggested.
