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

backgroundGlobally, unintentional injury has been a documented public health problem among adolescents having debilitating consequences and accountable for economic burden. The study was undertaken to estimate the prevalence of unintentional injury, identify the determinants and consequences among adolescents. DESIGN AND

methodsThis cross-sectional study recruited 222 adolescents using systematic random sampling from a site covered under UHTC Srinagar Garhwal, Uttarkhand. Binary and multivariate logistic regression was used to compute crude and adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) for establishing an association between risk factors and unintentional injury. Descriptive measures (causes, consequences, etc.) describing injuries were presented in tabular, graphical form in proportions.

results73.1% of the adolescents suffered from unintentional injury. The risk factors associated (statistically insignificant) with unintentional injury was  males (AOR=1.019, 95% CI=0.524-1.979) , living in nuclear family (AOR=1.540, 95% CI =0.766-3.093), smoked tobacco (AOR=2.797, 95% CI=0.227-34.4377), visually impaired (AOR =1.629, 95% CI=0.548-6.458) and living in house with overcrowding (AOR=1.66, 95% CI=0.818-3.395). Five percent of those affected with unintentional injury had disability.

conclusionsHealth education addressing causes, risk factors, consequences of unintentional injury among adolescents, parents, school, and district health authorities should be mandated for the formulation of policy to prevent unintentional injuries.
