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

backgroundPhimosis is one of the most common diseases in children. Early selection of appropriate treatment for phimosis in children is beneficial to the development of their reproductive organs and significantly improves the prognosis of phimosis in children. Although traditional circumcision is the most widely used, it has many disadvantages, including postoperative bleeding and incision infection, pain, obvious scars on the surgical incision, and unsatisfactory appearance. In addition, there is much controversy regarding treatment options and timing at home and abroad. Surgical procedures such as circumcision and cerclage for children with excessively long foreskin will greatly affect the normal life of children after the operation. Young children need general anesthesia, but this anesthesia carries a great risk.

aimTo design a new children phimosis dilatation retractor for children phimosis.

methodsThe children phimosis was dilated with an elastic dilation frame, in order to expand the foreskin mouth and expose the penis head, and after that, the phimosis was cured.

resultsA new type of phimosis dilatation retractor was designed, which can gently dilate the prepuce at multiple angles and in multiple directions at the same time. It has obtained the national patent for clinical application.

conclusionThe phimosis dilatation retractor based on the principle of elastically expanding the prepuce can achieve the purpose of expanding the phimosis. The clinical application shows that the effect of the children phimosis retractor is significant, which is worth promoting.
