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

In order to avoid the psychological harm caused by pain to patients, in this study, the application effect of computer-assisted local anesthesia in patient surgery was studied. In this method, 72 patients with hypertension, 35 males and 37 females, aged 53-83 years, with an average age of 70.8 ± 1.3 years, were selected for appointment tooth extraction in the department of stomatology from January to December 2014. All patients were booked for tooth extraction by ECG monitoring. Patients who were contraindicated for tooth extraction, had a history of mental illness, and had used antianxiety drugs and sedatives within 1 week before surgery were excluded. Patients were randomly divided into two groups according to their ID numbers: observation group, 36 cases, and control group. Painless oral local anesthesia injection instrument was used for local anesthesia injection. In the control group, 36 patients were injected with local anesthesia by traditional manual injection. The results showed that 86.11% of patients in the observation group had decreased anxiety scores after anesthesia, while only 13.88% of patients in the control group had decreased anxiety scores. Among patients with decreased anxiety scores, 80.65% in the observation group became nondental anxiety compared with 28.57% in the control group. Computer-assisted oral local anesthesia can effectively control dental anxiety and relieve the pain and discomfort of local anesthesia injection, and improve patient satisfaction, conducive to the smooth nursing work.
