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

Virtual reality (VR) needs to be implemented in clinical settings to improve pediatric patient care during painful medical procedures. Engaging doctors and nurses to lead the adoption of new clinical techniques can facilitate the transition from research to routine practice. Integrating VR into routine clinical practice could reduce patient pain and anxiety, making medical procedures smoother and more efficient. This feasibility pilot quality improvement (QI) project provides evidence for broader expansion and implementation of VR into different clinical areas. Medical providers (doctors and nurses) implemented VR during brief pediatric medical procedures and completed a demographics and feasibility survey. Qualitative feedback from semi-structured interviews indicated VR's ease of use and effectiveness in reducing anxiety and easing medical procedures. Patients (
