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

backgroundAnaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that needs early administration of intramuscular epinephrine for treatment. Currently, structured education on epinephrine prefilled syringe usage for anaphylaxis does not exist.

objectiveThis study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the epinephrine prefilled syringe usage video, compared with routine teaching method.

methodsThis was a randomized controlled trial. A total of 129 medical students were assigned either to the routine teaching group or the video teaching group. The main outcome is the total number of medical students who passed (>70%) the test. The pre-, posttest, and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) were used to evaluate the students.

resultsAt the 2-week follow-up, the individual scores increased significantly after both interventions (

conclusionThe study demonstrated that the scores after the video education intervention were not inferior to the routine teaching group. This technique might be applied for patients in clinical practice. However, the further researches in general population are needed to confirm the efficacy of this method.
