The Pancreas in Child Abuse.
Review in Academic forensic pathology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The pancreas can be a critical indicator of inflicted injury in young children. Due to its retroperitoneal location and the amount of incursion of the abdomen required to cause injury, the pancreas is unlikely to be significantly injured in minor trauma incidents. Typical blunt force injury mechanisms for the pancreas include motor vehicle collisions, inflicted injury from blows or kicks, and bicycle handlebar injuries with deep incursion of the abdomen. The death of a toddler is described in which a pancreatic injury was a critical indicator of abusive injury rather than the claimed accidental fall or cardiopulmonary resuscitation-related trauma. Review of the medical literature regarding the epidemiology, etiology, and pathology of childhood pancreatic injuries is discussed. Pancreatic injury is a marker of severe blunt force trauma and should rouse a suspicion of nonaccidental trauma in young children. In the absence of a severe, high velocity or deep abdominal incursion traumatic mechanism, such as motor vehicle collision or bicycle handlebar injury, pancreatic laceration specifically is a marker of inflicted injury in children under the age of five.
