A protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis of continuous vacuum sealing drainage for diabetic foot ulcer.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundAlthough continuous vacuum sealing drainage (CVSD) is often reported for the management of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), its effectiveness has been evaluated primarily via clinical outcomes with limited attention. This study will aim to assess the effectiveness of CVSD for the treatment of patients with DFU.
methodsWe will carry out a search in Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure from their inceptions to the March 1, 2020. We will exert the searches in those electronic databases without restrictions of language, and the use of validated filters to obtain eligible studies. In addition to the search in electronic databases, we will retrieve studies from conference proceedings, and reference lists of included trials. We will use Cochrane risk of bias tool to assess study quality for each eligible study. All statistical analysis will be conducted using RevMan 5.3 software.
resultsThis study will systematically summarize the most present evidence to assess the effectiveness and safety of CVSD for the management of DFU.
conclusionThe results from this study will contribute to obtain a genuine understanding of perspective from evidence-based medicine and a scientific basis for the effectiveness and safety of CVSD for the treatment of DFU. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: PROSPERO CRD42020170723.
