Using technology to enhance prevention of pressure injuries in the spina bifida population.
Article in Journal of pediatric rehabilitation medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Patients with spina bifida (SB) are highly susceptible to pressure injuries (PIs) due to limited mobility and sensory deficits, and they may occur during multiple surgical procedures. The article highlights that PIs, which significantly increase hospital costs and extend patient stays, can be prevented mainly through evidence-based interventions. One of the critical technologies used at this stage is pressure mapping to monitor and optimize pressure distribution on surfaces, whether lying or seated, particularly during prolonged medical procedures. Additionally, the article emphasizes the importance of educating families and caregivers about early signs of PIs, photography, using electronic health records for tracking, and effective home care strategies to prevent these injuries post-discharge. Future research should investigate how to enhance prevention methods in hospital settings, especially for patients undergoing surgeries or other lengthy procedures. Overall, the article underscores the critical role of early identification of risk, intervention, and technological support in reducing the incidence and impact of PIs in patients with SB.
