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: To evaluate the feasibility and clinical outcomes of a nurse‑performed, home‑based electromagnetic navigation‑guided nasojejunal tube placement in a high‑risk bedridden elderly patient who was unable to be transported to hospital. Methods: We present a case of an 89-year-old male with long-term bedridden status and high aspiration risk. A qualified nurse performed electromagnetic navigation-guided nasojejunal tube insertion in the patient's home environment. The procedure steps, nursing interventions, and short-term outcomes were documented. Results: The tube was successfully placed in the upper jejunum under real-time electromagnetic guidance within 8 minutes. No complications such as tube displacement, blockage, or aspiration occurred during the 15-day follow-up. Family satisfaction was high. Conclusion: This first reported case suggests that nurse-led, home-based electromagnetic navigation-guided nasojejunal tube placement may be a feasible and safe option for high-risk bedridden elderly patients who cannot be transported. Strict environmental assessment, operator expertise, and structured risk management are essential for success.
