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

Patients with diabetes mellitus are exposed to important complications, such as diabetic neuropathy or peripheral vascular disease. The evidence on the guidelines that these patients, with a certain risk of suffering foot ulcerations, should follow before, during and after physical exercise is scarce. The objective of this study is to identify the physical exercise guidelines to recommend based on the risk of the foot of the patient with diabetes through a consensus of experts. A three-round Delphi study will be conducted. A scientific committee (multidisciplinary group of four national experts) will review the proposal of experts and the Delphi questionnaire before submitting. A group of experts in the management and approach of the diabetic foot of an international and multidisciplinary nature will form the panel of experts, who must express their degree of (dis)agreement with each of the statements contained in the Delphi questionnaire. The percentage will be calculated in response categories, and a cut-off point of 80% will be set to define the consensus of (dis)agreement of the panelists. The results of the study could provide a series of recommendations on the realization of physical exercise in diabetic patients at risk of suffering foot ulcerations.
