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

Objectives: To study the effect of epilepsy on the risk of injury in children. Methods: All first-born singleton children (n = 133055) born in 2001 - 2006 in Finland were included. Data was collected from national registers up to the first hospital-treated injury during the five years following the onset of epilepsy. Four matched controls were chosen for every subject. Results: Epilepsy had been diagnosed in 0.66 % of children. During follow-up, 12 % of 884 children with epilepsy and 9 % of 3536 controls were hospitalized for injuries (HR 1.387 [95 % CI 1.115 - 1.725]; Conclusions: Children with epilepsy are at increased risk for hospital-treated injuries. The spectrum of injuries and the risk for death due to injuries are not different in children with and without epilepsy.
