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

Involvement of the liver is one of the most common injuries in addition to those of the pancreas following blunt force abdominal trauma. Due to the even now high mortality radiological imaging must provide a rapid, definitive and exact assessment of the extent of the damage. Despite conflicting study results ultrasound has become established as a rapid and relatively simple method in emergency room treatment and is irreplaceable for initial orientation diagnostics. The use of contrast medium-assisted examinations promises to be an advantage for diagnostics in the secondary phase. Due to the high sensitivity and specificity modern multidetector computed tomography is the most effective examination modality for the detection of liver damage and hepatobiliary complications and plays a central role in non-operative management following abdominal trauma. Shorter and shorter scan times even allow the examination of metastable patients and a rapid assessment even of large body volumes.
