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

backgroundThe treatment of hepatic injury can be complex. Medical clinical centers are often the first line hospitals for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic trauma in China. The aim of the study is to summarize the experience in the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic trauma in one medical clinical center in China.

methodsThis retrospective study included patients with hepatic trauma admitted between January 2002 and December 2019 at the Xishan People's Hospital of Wuxi. The outcomes were cure rate and death within 14 days post-discharge.

resultsAmong the 318 patients with hepatic trauma, 146 patients underwent surgical treatment, and 172 received conservative treatment; three patients were transferred to other hospitals for further treatment; 283 patients were cured, and 35 died. Severe hepatic trauma occurred in 74 patients, with a mortality rate of 31.1% and accounting for 65.7% of total mortality. American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) grading ≥ III (OR = 3.51, 95%CI: 1.32-9.37, P = 0.012) and multiple organ injury (OR = 7.51, 95%CI: 2.51-22.46, P < 0.001) were independently associated with death. Among patients with AAST grading ≥ III, surgery was an independent protective factor for death (OR = 0.08, 95%CI: 0.01-0.45, P = 0.004). Among patients with ASST ≥ III and who underwent surgery, age (OR = 5.29, 95%CI: 1.37-20.33, P = 0.015) and peri-hepatic packing (PHP) (OR = 5.54, 95%CI: 1.43-21.487, P = 0.013) were independently associated with death.

conclusionsAAST grading ≥ III and multiple organ injury were independently associated with death. Among patients with AAST grading ≥ III, surgery was an independent protective factor for death. Among patients with ASST ≥ III and who underwent surgery, age and PHP were independently associated with death.
