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

objectiveThis study intended to investigate the effect of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in the treatment of orthopedic trauma and its role in the clinical care.

methodsA total of 104 patients with orthopedic trauma infection admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were divided into control group (n=53, receiving VSD) and study group (n=51, receiving VSD and nursing interventions) by random number table. Surgical outcomes, satisfaction, size of trauma and visual analogue scoring scale (VAS) scores were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe study group had shorter time to achieve granulation tissue coverage of wound base, trauma recovery and hospital stay than the control group (

conclusionVSD treatment combined with clinical nursing interventions in patients with orthopedic trauma infection could shorten the time to granulation coverage, wound healing and hospitalization time, and improve indicators of blood rheology. It could also shrink the size of trauma, decrease the level of pain and inflammatory factors, and improve the quality of life, resulting in high satisfaction.
