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

Objectives: This study aimed to explore and visualize the relationships among multiple symptoms in patients with Meniere's disease (MD) and aid clinical nurses in the design of accurate, individualized interventions. Methods: This study included 790 patients with MD at the Eye and ENT Hospital of Fudan University from October 2014 to December 2021. A self-designed symptom checklist was used to assess 15 MD-related symptoms and construct contemporaneous networks with all 15 symptoms in R software. Qgraph package and Fruchterman-Reingold layout were used for network visualization. Bootstrapping methods were performed to assess network accuracy and stability, and three centrality indices were adopted to describe relationships among symptoms. Results: Symptom networks showed good accuracy and stability. "Anxiety and nervousness"(98.2%), "aural fullness"(84.4%) and "tinnitus"(82.7%) were the common symptom in MD patients, while "tinnitus", "aural fullness" and "decline in word recognition", were more serious. MD patients with longer disease duration had higher prevalence and severity for all symptoms ( Conclusions: The symptom networks of MD patients with varying disease durations were revealed. Clinicians and nurses must provide precision interventions tailored to modifying symptom severity and centrality. Nursing interventions should focus on word recognition issues and associated discomfort in MD patients with multiple symptoms.
