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

Background: Early postoperative ambulation holds significant implications for patient prognosis. The present study aims to analyze the implementation rate of early postoperative ambulation in neurosurgical patients, identify its independent influencing factors, and provide evidence-based support for optimizing clinical treatment and nursing interventions. Methods: The study population comprised neurosurgical patients admitted to a tertiary medical center in Jiangsu Province, China, between January 2024 and May 2025. Comprehensive perioperative data-encompassing baseline demographics and early postoperative ambulation status-were analyzed to identify influencing factors of early postoperative ambulation. Results: A total of 268 neurosurgical patients were included, among whom 85 (31.7%) achieved early postoperative ambulation. Correlation analyses demonstrated that age ( Conclusion: The rate of early postoperative ambulation completion among neurosurgical patients is relatively low, with multiple factors influencing this outcome. Targeted nursing interventions are warranted to improve the implementation of postoperative ambulation in neurosurgical patients.
