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

BACKGROUND/

aimDiabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) is a simple, brief, and useful screening tool that was designed to assess DPN. The aim of this study was to develop a Turkish version of the MNSI and assess its reliability and validity. MATERIALS AND

methodsEighty-three patients with DM who were divided into two groups according the results of nerve conduction studies (NCS) as having DPN or without DPN were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. The Toronto clinical scoring system, pain detect questionnaire, and NCS were assessed along with the MNSI.

resultsEach section of the MNSI was internally consistent (Cronbach's alpha > 0.70), and the scores of both sections were positively correlated with total MNSI score (

conclusionThe Turkish version of MNSI is a reliable and valid tool for screening DPN in Turkish patients.
