Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Life-threatening situations after multiple trauma which then require interruption of the diagnostic algorithm and immediate surgical treatment after admission are a challenge for the multidisciplinary trauma team. Emergency surgery after trauma may be necessary for the abdomen, the pelvis, the chest as well as the head. Therefore, several disciplines may be involved. Damage control surgery is the leading surgical strategy in emergency surgery in unstable trauma patients. The main aspects of damage control surgery are outlined in this article. The goal of damage control surgery is to gain control of bleeding as soon as possible without additional surgical trauma. Packing plays a central role in damage control surgery of the abdomen and the pelvis. Surgical decision-making occurs under unfavorable circumstances and extreme time pressure. However, surgical interventions in the shock room rarely occur in the German health system. Therefore, indications and decision-making processes of these challenging situations have to be practiced with standardized algorithms. The "Definitive Surgical Trauma Care" (DSTC)- courses may contribute to a straightforward performance in an emergency operation.
