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

Objective: Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with substantial central nervous system damage, making the patients prone to urinary or fecal incontinence and incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD). This study aimed to evaluate the clinical value of graded nursing based on the Perineal Assessment Tool (PAT) for preventing and treating IAD in patients with severe TBI. Methods: This retrospective analysis was conducted at Jiangyin People's Hospital and included prospectively collected data from 189 patients with severe TBI admitted to the intensive care unit from March 2022 to December 2023. Among them, 94 patients received traditional nursing (traditional group), and 95 received graded nursing based on the PAT risk assessment tool (graded nursing group). The PAT score, IAD incidence, quality of life, and nursing satisfaction of patients were analyzed before and after intervention. Results: After intervention, the PAT and quality of life (QOL) scores in both groups increased compared to before intervention and were higher in the grading nursing group compared to the traditional group ( Conclusions: Compared with traditional nursing, graded nursing based on PAT in severe TBI patients can reduce the incidence of IAD, improve QOL, and increase patient satisfaction.
