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

This study evaluated soft-embalmed human cadavers for ultrasound needle-guidance training. Second-year medical students used peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line and central line models and a Thiel-embalmed cadaver for training and provided feedback. Most (85%) agreed the cadaver was useful. There were positive correlations between performing the PICC line (r=0.44, P=.11) and central line (r=0.63, P=.03) procedures on a cadaver and in a clinical setting. Thiel-embalmed cadavers may provide important hands-on training.
