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

Nowadays, one of the choice techniques for the spasticity treatment is the ultrasound-guided infiltration of Botulinum Toxin, because it is safe and effective. In order to medical professionals can carry out this technique, they need training and education. One of the safest and most time-free ways to facilitate the acquisition of practical medical skills is through simulators. In this paper we present an innovative technological environment, which includes an ultrasound simulator for training in muscle exploration and infiltration. The simulation platform will guide health professionals, with great realism and high degree of interactivity, in the autonomous training of all the tasks involved in the spasticity treatment procedure by infiltration of Botulinum Toxin, without the need for a real patient or costly phantoms.
