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

This article highlights five important aspects of the clinical problem of evaluating young children who are suspected of having abusive head trauma: 1) the clinical questions to be addressed, 2) challenges when evaluating young children with suspected abuse, 3) key aspects of clinical practice and data collection, 4) a framework for decision-making and 5) key articles in the literature that can help inform a sound clinical decision about the likelihood of abuse.
