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
introductionThere is a shortage of data on intimate partner and interpersonal violence in sub-Saharan Africa. We, therefore, sought to characterize patterns of sex-based risk of in-home interpersonal violence in Malawi.
methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of the Kamuzu Central Hospital Trauma Registry data from 2009 to 2017 on adult patients presenting the emergency room following assault. Data variables collected include basic demographics, injury characteristics, and outcomes. We performed a bivariate analysis for covariates based on sex and Poisson regression analysis to estimate the risk of domestic violence and sex-based mortality.
resultsThe in-home assault interpersonal violence was 37.1% (
conclusionInterpersonal violence is a global problem. In Malawi, women are more likely to be victims of in-home interpersonal violence. However, men are more likely to die following in-home interpersonal violence. Prevalence of in-home interpersonal violence is likely an underestimation.
