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

Life-threatening pediatric emergencies are rare events in which precise, correct and fast drug dosing is essential. Intravenous drugs are most commonly dosed based on the child's weight in mg/kg. Numerous tools exist for aiding the physician in the error prone calculation, none of which meet all criteria for the perfect tool. Besides frequent training of practical skills and awareness of the problem of calculating the exact drug dose, it seems indispensable to have a localized tool at hand for these critical events.
