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

objectiveTo investigate the effects of care bundles for patients with pressure ulcers and the impact on self-care efficacy.

methodA total of 160 patients with pressure ulcers were enrolled and divided into two groups using a lottery method. The control group (n=80) was cared for with routine nursing while the observation group (n=80) was additionally nursed with care bundles for 3 months. Both groups were compared in terms of grading of pressure ulcers, self-care efficacy, pressure ulcer management, awareness rate, and quality of life.

resultsAt 3 months after nursing, the grading of pressure ulcers was significantly improved in both groups. The observation group exhibited higher incidence of pressure ulcers, unstageable and deep tissue injury than the control group (

conclusionCare bundles can improve pressure ulcer grading, enhance patient self-care efficacy and skills of pressure ulcer management, and help improve patient awareness rates and quality of life for patients with pressure ulcers, which is worth of promoting.
