A Novel Approach to Identify Polytraumatized Patients in Extremis.
Article in BioMed research international, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionDue to the fact that early objective identification of polytraumatized patients in extremis is crucial for carrying out immediate life-saving measures, our objectives were to provide and scrutinize a definition that results in a particularly high mortality rate and to identify predictors of mortality in this group. MATERIALS AND
methodsA polytraumatized patient (ISS ≥ 16) was classified "in extremis" if five out of seven parameters (arterial paCO
resultsOut of 64 polytraumatized patients (mean ISS, 43.6), who formed the "in extremis" group, 36 patients (56.3%) died, thus revealing a threefold higher mortality rate than in the matched group (18.9%). Within the "in extremis" group, age and ISS were identified as predictors of mortality.
conclusionOur definition might serve as a valuable early warning score or at least an impetus for defining polytraumatized patients in extremis in clinical practice.
