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

Seclusion was widely used in mental health service, which had caused various negative effects on patients and nurses. In China, the clinical use of seclusion was gradually increasing, which had led to ethical dilemma and had gained public concern. This article aimed to synthesize the ethical issue according to the principle of autonomy, justice, beneficence, and non-maleficence. Given that nursing workforce was limited and work burden among psychiatric nurses was heavy, seclusion was one of coercive interventions managing aggressive behavior. In relation to cope with ethical dilemma, it was proposed to improve therapeutic environment, and to apply de-escalation technique. Additionally, reducing clinical use and adverse effects of seclusion was also important, this goal would be achieved by building appropriate patient-nurse relationship, increasing staff engagement, and promoting guideline of seclusion.
