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

Aim: A comprehensive study evaluated the effect of modified indwelling needle technique on puncture success rate and indwelling time in Chinese children. Background: Compared with ordinary steel needles, indwelling needles have many advantages. The incidence of complications of an indwelling needle is lower than that of an ordinary steel needle. There are many ways to improve it, such as a modified fixation and liquid connection indwelling needle, and many studies have conducted randomized controlled trials. Design: meta-analysis. Methods: Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wang Fang, CQVIP, Embase were electronically searched for studies on modified indwelling needle insertion techniques from inception to June 20, 2024. Two authors conducted the article search independently. A third author addressed the inconsistencies that arose between the two authors. Keywords were used for retrieval, and Boolean operators were used accordingly. Results: A total of 18 randomized controlled (RCT) studies were included. The results showed that the puncture success rate, indwelling time and parent satisfaction of the modified indwelling needle insertion technique were better than the control group. Sensitivity analysis was carried out after each study was excluded one by one, and the results showed that pooled sensitivity and specificity had no significant change, indicating that the stability of the meta-analysis, and no publication bias found. Conclusions: The modified indwelling needle technique showed increased puncture success rate, prolonged indwelling time and improved parental satisfaction compared with the control group.
