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

aimTo examine the experience of diabetic care in patients undergoing lower limb amputation.

designA qualitative study using the phenomenological approach.

settingCadiz Health District.

participantsA total of 16 patients (11 men and 5 women) diagnosed with diabetes mellitus type 2 and with non-traumatic lower limb amputation.

methodsSemi-structured interviews were performed, followed by a content analysis according Graneheim and Lundman.

resultsFour categories were identified: 1. The family is the cornerstone for diabetic care. 2. The socio-economic and working conditions determine the quality of self-care. 3. The patient-health professional interaction facilitates patient care. 4. Limitations in the provision of health services.

conclusionFamily, economic and working conditions, along with health system-related factors are the most important elements in the care of patients with diabetes and amputations. Social, economic and working conditions determine diabetic complications. In order to enhance health care impact on the prevention of diabetes mellitus complications, health system policy makers must take these facts seriously into consideration and in a more personalised manner.
