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

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating and common neurological disorder that is difficult to treat. The pain can sustain for many years, making the sufferer extremely painful. Nerve stimulation was first reported half a century ago as a treatment for neuropathic pain. Since then, the method of electrical stimulation through leads placed in the epidural space on the dorsal side of the spinal cord has become a valuable therapeutic tool for SCI. But nerve stimulation equipment is expensive, and the stimulator design and treatment plan are complicated, which hinders its development. In recent years, wearable and implantable triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) developed rapidly, and their low cost and safety have brought a new turning point for the development of nerve stimulation. Nanofibrous membrane has been proved that it is a flexible material with the advantages of ultrathin diameter, good connectivity, easy scale-up, tunable wettability, fine flexibility, tunable porosity, controllable composition and so on. In this paper, we discuss the technology of using nanofiber membrane on clothing to create TENGs to provide continuous electrical energy for nerve stimulation to treat SCI in patients by analyzing previous research.
