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

Quality of life (QoL) and sleep quality are critical to the well-being of night-shift nurses. This study evaluates the therapeutic effects of an 830 nm laser array on QoL and sleep quality among this population. A total of 60 night-shift nurses participated in the study. The 830 nm laser array was applied to the palm and a localized painful area at an energy density of 252 J/cm
