Analysis of Missed Skeletal Injuries Detected Using Whole-Body Bone Scan Applied to Trauma Patients: A Case-Control Study.

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
(1) Background: Skeletal injuries may be missed in patients presenting multiple traumas during initial assessment. A whole-body bone scan (WBBS) may aid the detection of missed skeletal injuries, but the current level of research in this regard is insufficient. Thus, this study aimed to investigate whether a WBBS is useful for the detection of missed skeletal injuries in patients with multiple traumas. (2) Methods: This retrospective, single-region, trauma center study was conducted at a tertiary referral center from January 2015 to May 2019. The rate of missed skeletal injuries detected via WBBSs was evaluated, and factors that could influence the outcome were analyzed and divided into missed and not-missed groups. (3) Results: A total of 1658 patients with multiple traumas who underwent WBBSs were reviewed. In the missed group, the percentage of cases with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16 was higher than the not-missed group (74.66% vs. 45.50%). The rate of admission route through surgery and embolization was high in the missed group. Moreover, the proportion of patients that experienced shock in the missed group was higher than that in the not-missed group (19.86% vs. 3.51%). In univariate analysis, ISS ≥ 16, admission route through surgery and embolization, orthopedic surgery involvement, and shock were related to missed skeletal injuries. ISS ≥ 16 was determined to be statistically significant in multivariate analysis. Additionally, a nomogram was constructed based on multivariable analysis. (4) Conclusions: Missed skeletal injuries were significantly associated with several statistical factors, and a WBBS can be used as a screening method to detect missed skeletal injuries in patients with multiple blunt traumas.
