Injury surveillance during elite women's national boxing championship in India.
Article in Medical journal, Armed Forces India. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Injury surveillance is the cornerstone of any prevention program. However the same pertaining to women's boxing is meager. We hence intended to analyse the incidence, pattern and characteristics of injuries in female boxers during the 4th Elite Women's National Boxing Championship, 2019, in India. Methods: A total of 235 female Indian boxers participated in the tournament. Injuries from the competition injury database maintained in accordance with the injury code proposed by the Australian Sports Injury Data Dictionary were compiled to observe the pattern and analysed. The outcomes measured were incidence in terms of injury rate and injury risk and injury pattern in terms of site, nature, mechanism, severity and time of injury. Results: The injury rate was observed to be 43.98 injuries per 1000 athlete bouts of exposure (95% confidence interval [CI]: 33.71-54.07) and 293.21 injuries per 1000 athlete hours of competition (95% CI: 225.94-360.47). The most commonly injured site was head, face and neck regions. Most injuries were bruises/contusions followed by cuts and epistaxis. No concussions were reported. Conclusion: This study observed that women are less prone to injuries than their male counterparts, even though a logical comparison is difficult because of the lack of data and standardization in women's boxing.
