Effects of cross electro-nape-acupuncture (CENA) on recovery of consciousness and tracheotomy tube sealing in serious cerebral hemorrhage.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 was designed to explore the effects of cross electro-nape-acupuncture (CENA) treatment on the recovery of consciousness and tracheotomy tube sealing in patients with serious cerebral hemorrhage (SCH).
methodsA total of 60 patients with SCH admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the South Hospital of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from November 2020 to June 2021 were selected and randomized into two groups: the CENA group and a control group, given no acupuncture. Both groups were given the same basic treatment and patients in the CENA group were additionally given CENA treatment. Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores, mismatch negative wave (MMN) and the cough reflex grading score (TCRGS) were recorded and compared after treatment for four weeks. The time to tracheostomy tube sealing was also recorded.
resultsAfter treatment, the GCS scores and MMN latency values of the two groups were significantly improved, with significantly better GCS scores and MMN latency values in the CENA group than in the control group. After treatment, the two groups of TCRGS were reduced, with more significant decreases in the CENA group than in the control group.
conclusionWith CENA, it took less time to achieve recovery of consciousness, improve cough reflex score and shortened the time to tracheal tube cutting and sealing in patients with SCH.
