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

Post-burn itching is an important symptom that negatively affects patients during both the treatment and rehabilitation processes. Understanding patients' lived experiences regarding post-burn itching is essential to improving patient care. This qualitative study was conducted using a phenomenological approach. In-depth, face-to-face interviews were held with 10 patients who experienced itching after burn injuries. Data collection occurred between January and May 2024. Thematic analysis was employed to evaluate the data. Analysis of the data revealed four main themes and 13 sub-themes. The main themes identified were: (1) the psychological burden of itching, (2) the bodily experience of itching, (3) difficulties in daily life, and (4) coping strategies. The study findings provide detailed insights into the experiences of patients suffering from post-burn itching. These results enhance current knowledge in this area and may inform the development of holistic, patient-centred, and community-based care strategies tailored to patient needs.
