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

In high-speed motor vehicle accidents, it is necessary to investigate the manner of death. Postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) provides important information on the mechanism of death, but identification of the aortic injury is still challenging on non-contrast PMCT. A man in his 50s had multiple injuries on the face and chest in the high-speed motor vehicle accident. The traumatic aortic rupture was clearly depicted on thin-slice and multiplanar reformation PMCT images. Traumatic aortic disruption was confirmed by forensic autopsy. The high contrast between the aortic wall and the lumen visualized the traumatic rupture in the distal aortic arch. For the evaluation of aortic rupture on PMCT, it may be important to trace the continuity of the high-density aortic wall by reviewing thin-slice CT and multiplanar reformation images.
