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

The first hours after trauma are decisive. Therefore the treatment chosen demands very strict planning according to concepts of modern quality management. This begins with the fastest possible and most efficient delivery of injured patients to the applicable clinic. Such institutions are permanently ready and have at their service all the necessary diagnostic techniques and surgical and intensive care methods. Effective shock treatment entails standardized procedures accompanied by up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic measures. After admittance and therapy of life-threatening injuries (immediate measures, damage control surgery), early-stage surgery will follow (soft tissue injuries and fractures). Strategy of damage control orthopedics is growing in acceptance because of the potential danger to life functions due to pro- and anti-inflammatory response induced additional trauma caused by following surgery. Fractures initially stabilized by external fixation can consecutively be treated safely by secondary conversion osteosynthesis. A considerable improvement in quality can be attained through therapeutic procedures approved by all concomitant disciplines and standardized systems with internal and external control methods.
