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

introductionOrthopedic conditions include a range of condition varying from traumatic injuries, congenital anomalies, chronic back-pain, arthritis, rheumatologic conditions, and other. In Nepal, approximately 2.35 million people are living with musculoskeletal conditions in which 175,000 people are suffering with MSD from non-traumatic causes. The aim of the study is to observe the clinical and demographic pattern of orthopedic problems presenting in the hospital.

methodsA descriptive cross-sectional study was done in All Nepal Hospital Private Limited in the month of November. The data from the medical record section was retrospectively collected. Sample size of 384 was included and convenience sampling technique was used. The descriptive statistical analysis was done.

resultsEight hundred forty four cases were included in the study. Implant removal was the main condition for admission in the hospital 105 (12.44%) followed by Forearm Bone Fracture 84 (9.95%) and Cut Injury 64 (7.58%). Most cases presented during the time 6 PM to 12 AM 312 (36.96%).
