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

Electric scooters have become very popular over the past five years. However, their growing popularity and their easy availability are strongly related to an increasing number of injuries. These accidents are more common among young people and typically occurred during the night. The great majority of patients admitted to an emergency department receive at least one imaging examination, which commonly is an X-ray or a computed tomography scan. In electric scooter trauma, the head, maxillofacial region, and upper and lower extremities are more vulnerable than the thoracoabdominal region and spine. Among fractures, the nasal bone, radius and tibia are most involved. Intracranial injuries are rare but are an important cause of disability and possible death. Although most patients with electric scooter trauma are discharged home, these accidents often require outpatient follow-up and sometimes hospitalization. Due to the growing number of this type of trauma, it is important for an emergency radiologist to know the pattern of injuries.
