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

Objective: To explore the value of wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) technique in the treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture. Methods: In a prospective randomized controlled trial, 48 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture who met the criteria between March 2020 and October 2020 were randomly divided into two groups according to 1∶1 distribution, with 24 cases in each group. The study group used WALANT technique and the control group used epidural anesthesia with tourniquet for channel-assisted minimally invasive repair (CAMIR). There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender, age, injured side, cause of injury, distance from broken end of Achilles tendon to calcaneal tubercle, and time from injury to hospitalization ( Results: The operation was successfully completed in both groups. The operating room use time and hospital stay in the study group were significantly less than those in the control group ( Conclusion: The application of WALANT combined with CAMIR technique in the treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture has good anesthetic and effectiveness, avoids the adverse reactions of tourniquet, and reasonably saves social medical resources.
