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 evaluate the effects of electromagnetic waves generated by a commercial medical electromagnetic instrument (trade name, TDP, the Chinese phonetic abbreviation of "Te-ding Dian-ci-bo Pu") as an adjuvant to improve the rate of increase of milk feeds per day by premature infants with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Methods: This study was a prospective randomized clinical trial. A total of 103 premature infants were diagnosed with NEC II, but there was no need for surgery. The infants were randomly divided into the TDP intervention group and the control group by a randomized method using SPSS 24.0. The patients in the TDP intervention group were treated with TDP irradiation and routine interventions; those in the control group were treated with routine interventions. The rate of increase of milk feeds per day, the time to achieve total gastrointestinal nutrition, the velocity of weight gain, and the complication incidence rate were recorded and compared. Results: The rate of increase of milk feeds per day in the TDP intervention group was significantly greater than that in the control group [14.51 (11.58~22.11) ml/kg/d vs. 10.15 (6.15~15.87) ml/kg/d, Conclusion: Treatment with TDP-generated electromagnetic waves improved the volume of milk consumed per day in premature infants with NEC II and were conducive to improving their clinical outcomes.
