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

STUDY

designCase report.

objectivesThe objective of this study was to evaluate whether a new custom-made magnetic device might enable a patient affected with quadriplegia to self-feed.

settingDay Hospital of the Unipolar Spinal Unit, CTO Hospital, Turin, Italy.

methodsThree magnets were affixed to a custom-made device and to a specially modified cutlery and a bottle of water.

resultsThe magnetic device permitted the patient to feed himself autonomously, using both a knife and a fork to eat and a bottle of water to drink.

conclusionSuch a magnetic device might be useful for self-feeding in a patient with quadriplegia.
