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

objectivesto construct and validate the content of a scale for assessing the risk of phlebitis in hospitalized adult patients using peripheral intravenous therapy.

methodsa methodological study, developed according to DeVellis, in four stages, from January to July 2024. For content validity analysis, Content Validity Ratio (CVR) was calculated, including items that reached a critical point of 0.667 (first round) and 0.538 (second round).

resultsthe scale contained 95 items, including those with a value above the critical point of the CVR. Items that received suggestions from experts and also presented a CVR above the critical point were redacted and retained. A scale containing 28 items, distributed across three dimensions, was constructed.

conclusionsthe scale showed good measures of content validity and response process. Since it was assessed as easy to understand, it became a useful tool for use in the care of patients undergoing peripheral intravenous catheter therapy.
