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

backgroundThis study tested the long-term effect of extracorporeal shock wave (ECSW) therapy on ameliorating radiotherapy-induced chronic cystitis (CC) in rat. METHODS AND

resultsAdult-female SD rats (n = 24) were equally categorized into group 1 (normal control), group 2 (CC induced by radiotherapy with 450 cGy twice with a four-hour interval to the urinary bladder), group 3 [CC with ECSW treatment (0.1 mJ/mm

conclusionThe long-term effect of ECSW treatment was reliable on protecting the urinary bladder from radiation-induced CC.
