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

backgroundDiabetic foot ulcer (DFU) and the resulting lower extremity amputation are associated with a poor survival prognosis. The objective of this study is to generate a model for predicting the probability of major amputation in hospitalized patients with DFU.

methodsThe National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2008 to 2014 was used to select patients with DFU, who were then further divided by major amputation status.

resultsA total of 326 853 inpatients with DFU were identified, and 5.9% underwent major amputation. The top five contributory variables (all with

conclusionUtilizing machine learning methods, we have developed a clinical algorithm that predicts the risk of major lower extremity amputation for inpatients with diabetes with 77.8% accuracy.
