Prospective epidemiological update on traumatic spinal cord injury in Ireland.
Article in Spinal cord series and cases, 2019. 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
Study design: Prospective population-based epidemiological study on traumatic spinal cord injury in Ireland. Objectives: To provide updated data for the global TSCI repository. Setting: Republic of Ireland. Methods: All cases of TSCI acquired during 2016 were included. ISCoS core dataset was collected on all cases. Descriptive statistics are reported. Results: Overall crude incidence of TSCI was 12.8 per million (61 cases). Males accounted for 75.4%. Mean age at onset was 52.8 (19.9) years. Falls was the most common aetiology, 60.7% and AIS D was the most common injury level/AIS classification, 32.8%. The majority of patients (59%) were discharged home. Conclusions: Overall incidence of TSCI has changed very little since 2000 but many aspects of injury such as age and aetiologies are different. This data can now be included in the next TSCI global mapping update. Sponsorship: Health Research Board, Ireland.
