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

objectiveThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of nursing interventions, considering their importance in the rehabilitation of patients undergoing knee and hip replacement.

methodsThree databases were systematically searched. Two researchers carefully reviewed the full texts of the selected studies and extracted the required data. Further, a meta-analysis was conducted.

resultsOf the 19 studies reviewed, 17 revealed that nursing interventions can improve the rehabilitation of patients after knee and hip replacement operations. Among patients with hip replacements, the results indicated that nursing interventions can significantly increase the Harris hip score and activities of daily living compared with usual care. Among patients with knee replacements, the results revealed that nursing interventions can significantly improve range of motion and knee function and reduce knee pain compared with usual care.

conclusionsEvidence reveals that individualized care and evidence-based strategies combined with various exercises and training provided by a multidisciplinary team significantly influence the physical rehabilitation among patients undergoing knee and hip replacement.
