Unintentional injury deaths among children under five in Hunan Province, China, 2015-2020.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Injury is the most common cause of preventable morbidity and death among children under five. This study aimed to describe the epidemiological characteristics of injury-related mortality rates in children under five and to provide evidence for future preventive strategies. Data were obtained from the Under Five Child Mortality Surveillance System in Hunan Province, China, 2015-2020. Injury-related mortality rates with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated by year, residence, gender, age, and major injury subtype (drowning, suffocation, traffic injuries, falls, and poisoning). And crude odds ratios (ORs) were calculated to examine the association of epidemiological characteristics with injury-related deaths. The Under Five Child Mortality Surveillance System registered 4,286,087 live births, and a total of 22,686 under-five deaths occurred, including 7586 (which accounted for 33.44% of all under-five deaths) injury-related deaths. The injury-related under-five mortality rate was 1.77‰ (95% CI 1.73-1.81). Injury-related deaths were mainly attributed to drowning (2962 cases, 39.05%), suffocation (2300 cases, 30.32%), traffic injuries (1200 cases, 15.82%), falls (627 cases, 8.27%), and poisoning (156 cases, 2.06%). The mortality rates due to drowning, suffocation, traffic injuries, falls, and poisoning were 0.69‰ (95% CI 0.67,0.72), 0.54‰ (95% CI 0.51,0.56), 0.28‰ (95% CI 0.26,0.30), 0.15‰ (95% CI 0.13,0.16), and 0.04‰ (95% CI 0.03,0.04), respectively. From 2015 and 2020, the injury-related mortality rates were 1.78‰, 1.77‰, 1.60‰, 1.78‰, 1.80‰, and 1.98‰, respectively, and showed an upward trend (χ
