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

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of functional reconstruction of hand grasp and pinch by tendon transfers in patients with cervical spinal cord injury. Methods: Between July 2013 and January 2016, tendon transfer surgery were performed in 21 patients (41 hands) with cervical spinal injury that motion level was located at C Results: There was 1 patient with elbow skin lesion, 1 patient with wrist stiffness; both of them recovered after corresponding treatment. All the 21 patients were followed up 15-32 months (mean, 19.6 months) without wound infection, tendon adhesion, tendon rupture, and other complications. The grasp forces of all patients were significantly improved at 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after the first stage surgery when compared with preoperative value ( Conclusion: Tendon transfer can significantly improve the hand function and the quality of life of the patients with complete cervical spinal cord injury.
