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 risk factors for the recurrence of foot ulcers by analyzing clinical characteristics of the patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) in West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out with the clinical data of 817 DFU patients hospitalized at West China Hospital, Sichuan University between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2020. The patients were divided into an initial ulceration group (502 cases) and a recurrent ulceration group (315 cases) according to their history of foot ulcers. The differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the risk factors associated with the recurrence of foot ulcers. Results: Initial and recurrent DFU patients both had predominantly neuro-ischemic foot ulcers, and the most common sites of ulceration were the first and fifth toes in both groups. Compared with the initial DFU group, more patients in the recurrent group had foot ulcers of Wagner grade 3 and ulcerous wounds located on calluses ( Conclusions: Male sex, duration of diabetes being over 10 years, history of previous amputation, foot osteoporosis, and ulcerous wounds located on foot callus are independent risk factors of recurrent foot ulcers in patients with DFU. Therefore, even after their foot ulcers have healed, special attention should be given to the care of foot for patients with DFU, which may reduce the recurrence of foot ulcers.
