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

A survey is given of the development and actual state of the prediction of outcome in severe head injury. Thanks to the data collection in some large databanks it has become possible, in a relatively large number of cases, to estimate reliably the chances of survival and the chance of developing an intracranial haematoma base on clinical data and CT obtained during the first 24 hours. Later during the posttraumatic course prediction is possible of the degree of remaining disability in survivors, and the chances of developing epilepsy and neuro-behavioural sequelae. Due to changing management-regimens further data collection in international databanks is necessary.
