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 and Objective: Fever is a condition where the body temperature is higher than normal. A body temperature that is too high can cause febrile seizures. A non-pharmacological therapy to reduce body temperature is by applying a lemon with coconut oil compress in the axilla. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving lemon juice with coconut oil compress in children with fever to decrease body temperature. Methods: The research design used was a pre-experimental design (one-group pre-test-post-test design). The technique used was purposive sampling. Results: The results of this study showed that there was a significant decrease in body temperature of children with fever after applying lemon juice with coconut oil compress. Conclusion: A lemon with coconut oil compress can be used as an additional therapy to reduce fever in children and can be applied at home as an initial step before using fever-reducing medications.
