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 systematic review is designed to provide an assessment of the effectiveness and safety of moxibustion therapy for cervical vertigo (CV).

methodsRelevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) will be searched from the databases of PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database from their inception to June 2020. Two authors will independently select studies, collect data, and assess the methodology quality by the Cochrane risk of bias tool. RevMan V.5.3 software will be used for statistical analysis.

resultsThe results of this study will provide an assessment of the current state of moxibustion for CV and aim to prove the effectiveness and safety of moxibustion therapy.

conclusionThis systematic review will provide a credible Evidence-based for the treatment of CV with moxibustion. STUDY REGISTRATION NUMBER: INPLASY202060004.
