Neurosurgical Consequences of e-Scooter Use: Strategies to Prevent Neurological Injury.
Article in Neurotrauma 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
Rideshare electric scooter accidents have led to increasing emergency department (ED) visits and neurosurgical consultations. This study categorizes e-scooter-related injuries requiring neurosurgical consultation at a single level 1 trauma center. Patients who required neurosurgical consultation from June 2019 to June 2021 with a positive finding on computed tomography imaging were selected for review of patient and injury characteristics, resulting in a sample size of 50 cases. Average patient age was 36.9 (15-69) years, and 70% were male. Seventy-four percent of patients were under the influence of alcohol and 12% illicit drugs. None (0%) were helmeted. Seventy-eight percent of accidents occurred between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am. Twenty-two percent of patients required surgical intervention by craniotomy/craniectomy, and 4% required intracranial pressure monitor placement. Average intracranial hemorrhage volume was 17.8 cc (trace to 125). Volume of hemorrhage was associated with the need for an intensive care unit (ICU) stay (odds ratio [OR] = 1.01;
