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
introductionTraumatic brain injury is one of the leading causes of death and sources of heavy societal burden. Hypoxemia and hypercapnia are the 2 common complications of brain injury. Intubation seems to be an effective intervention for preventing the 2 complications in pre-hospital setting. But the results of the existing studies on the effect of pre-hospital intubation on prognosis of patients (aged less than 18) with severe traumatic brain injury are conflict. Thus, in this study, we aim to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate whether pre-hospital intubation is benefit for the prognosis in infants, children and adolescents with severe traumatic brain injury.
methodsWe will develop a systematic search strategy which includes MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, WanFang Data and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform will be searched for the ongoing studies as well. The cohort studies which aim to evaluate the effect of pre-hospital intubation for infants, children and adolescents with severe traumatic brain injury will be selected. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale will be used for assessing the risk of bias of the included studies.
resultsThe results of this study will be presented in the full-text of the systematic review.
conclusionThis is the first systematic review and meta-analysis about evaluation of the effect of pre-hospital intubation on prognosis in infants, children and adolescents with traumatic brain injury. PRESPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42019121214.
