Evidence-based bundled care for patients with dysphagia after severe traumatic brain injury: a randomized controlled trial.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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 explore the effect of an evidence-based bundled care model in patients with dysphagia after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).
methodsThis is a prospective randomized controlled study. A total of 60 patients with dysphagia after severe TBI (traumatic brain injury) admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine were selected and randomly divided into the test group (n=30) and the control group (n=30). Patients in the control group received routine care in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, while patients in the test group received evidence-based bundled care on the basis of the treatment of the control group. The improvement of swallowing function (dye test in comatose patients), oral hygiene, and nutritional risk was assessed in both groups. The incidence of adverse events such as aspiration and aspiration pneumonia, as well as the length and costs of hospitalization were compared between the two groups.
resultsCompared with patients in the control group, swallowing function of patients in the test group was significantly improved after the care (P<0.05), and for comatose patients, the positive rate of Evans blue dye test was markedly reduced (P<0.05). Compared with patients in the control group, the oral hygiene of patients in the test group was significantly improved after care, and the nutritional risk scores were also significantly decreased (P<0.05). During hospitalization, the total incidence of adverse events, length and costs of hospitalization of patients in the test group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).
conclusionEvidence-based bundled care can effectively improve swallowing function and reduce the incidence of nutritional risks and adverse events in patients with dysphagia after severe TBI, which further promotes postoperative rehabilitation of patients.
