The faster the better? Time to first CT scan after admission in moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury and its association with mortality.
Article in Neurosurgical review, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Fast acquisition of a first computed tomography (CT) scan after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is recommended. This study is aimed at investigating whether the length of the period preceding initial CT scan influences mortality in patients with leading TBI. A retrospective cohort analysis of patients registered in the TraumaRegister DGU® was conducted including adult patients with TBI, defined as Abbreviated Injury Scale
