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

STUDY

designScoping review.

objectiveRegarding that inappropriate medical care approaches, absence of rehabilitation services, and existing barriers in physical, social, and policy environments lead to poor outcomes in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) and provision for appropriate interventions and care must be created by health policymakers, we conducted this scoping review to investigate how policymakers can be persuaded to set new plans for individuals with SCI.

methodsThis review was performed according to Arksey and O'Malley's framework. PubMed was searched in February2019 without language limitation. We looked for other potential gray literature sources and some professional websites. References sections of selected articles were also scanned for other relevant literature.

resultsWe included literature that met inclusion criteria to answer our research question. The literature was divided into 3 categories. The first category included economic impact of SCI. The second category included the role of research and developing research strategy. The third category included effective interaction and communication with policymakers.

conclusionIt is essential to consider multiple factors for influencing policymakers' decisions. These factors include knowing how to communicate with policymakers and presenting constructive ideas, providing a source of valid, reliable, and consistent data, considering the role of patients' advocacy groups and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and presentation of the importance of early intervention in reducing healthcare system costs. Ultimately, the goal is to have a comprehensive and flexible plan for influencing policymakers.
