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

The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics and influence of gender difference on the outcome of adolescent burns. A retrospective study was conducted on 641 burn patients (10 - 19 years old) admitted to the Viet Nam National Burn Hospital over a three-year period (2016 - 2018). Demographic data, burn features and outcome including complications, length of hospital stay and mortality of male and female groups were compared. The results indicated that adolescents accounted for 6.5% of total admitted burn patients, with a predominance of males (69.3%). Higher proportions of burn due to dry heat (flame or hot surface contact) and electricity were seen in the male group (p < .001). No significant differences were seen between male and female groups in terms of age, admission time, season of burn and burn severity. Compared to females, males experienced more surgical interventions and stayed longer in hospital with higher LA50 (71.2% vs. 56.5% TBSA). It is necessary to conduct prevention and intervention to improve the outcome of adolescent burns, especially for female patients.
