Analysis of the preventive effect of upper limb exercise combined with intelligent grip ball on venous thrombosis in patients with peripheral central venous catheters.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectiveTo investigate the preventive effect of upper limb functional exercise on venous thrombosis in patients undergoing peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placement.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 108 patients who underwent PICC placement in Suzhou High tech Zone People's Hospital. The patients were divided into a control group (n=52) and an observation group (n=56) according to different treatment methods. The control group received upper limb functional exercise on the basis of routine treatment, while the observation group received rehabilitation exercises using an intelligent grip ball alongside the treatment administered to the control group. The incidence of catheter-related thrombosis, coagulation indicators, upper limb venous hemodynamic indicators, and compliance with functional exercise were compared between the two groups.
resultsThe incidence of catheter-related thrombosis was lower in the observation group compared with that in the control group (P=0.012). After treatment, improvements were observed in the coagulation indicators and upper limb venous hemodynamic indicators in both groups compared with pre-treatment levels. Moreover, post-treatment levels of these indicators were better in the observation group than in the control group (all P<0.05). The scores of the compliance questionnaire for functional exercise were higher in the observation group than those in the control group in various dimensions (all P<0.05). Lastly, patient satisfaction in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P=0.032).
conclusionUpper limb functional exercise combined with an intelligent grip ball can reduce the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis, improve coagulation function, increase compliance with functional exercise, and improve nursing satisfaction in patients with PICCs.
