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

The quality of healthcare is crucially linked to patient satisfaction, particularly in the provision of neuraxial analgesia for labor pain. Neuraxial analgesia for labor pain control should ideally be readily available when requested. However, in real-world practice, anesthesiologists may not always respond immediately to maternal demands, which can compromise the quality of care. To address this issue, this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of involving a dedicated nurse in epidural care to improve maternal satisfaction. This study was conducted in a single tertiary center. Medical records of women with singleton pregnancies above 36 gestational weeks who received neuraxial analgesia for labor pain control were reviewed (N = 354). Among them, 104 women (29%) received care from a dedicated nurse. The results showed that involving a dedicated nurse led to higher maternal satisfaction scores before (4.7 ± 0.5 versus 4.5 ± 0.6,
