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

introductionThere are many academic journals in Turkey and the world. Medical journals have a significant place among those publications. The aim of this study is to examine qualitatively and categorize the scientific studies of the two journals in Turkey. It also aims to contribute the related literature in the area. MATERIAL-

methodAcademic journals of medical emergencies published in Turkey between January 1, 2003 and December 20, 2014 were investigated in detail. All the works in journals were categorized briefly as research articles, case presentations, review articles, and other works. Moreover, research articles were investigated as observational and experimental, and discussed according to the including topics.

results943 scientific works in 86 issues were fully investigated. The total number was found to be 472 for research articles (50.1%), 242 for case presentations (25.7%), 108 for review articles (11.5%), and finally it was 12.8% for other works. Research articles included 450 observational (95.3%) and 22 experimental studies (4.7%). The key topics covered in research articles were the management and training of medical emergencies, trauma 96 (20.3%), toxicology 50 (10.6%), and gastrointestinal tract 36 (7.6%).

conclusionDespite its relatively short history, medical emergencies have improved progressively in Turkey. The number of domestic research articles has demonstrated an increase over the years. However, extra efforts are needed in order to improve the quality of articles. The most common contents encountered in research articles were the management and training of medical emergencies, trauma and toxicology.
