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

While prehospital medical interventions are evolving and improving survival rates, the evidence for adequate early prognostic assessment is often insufficient. A 12-year-old Japanese child was found hanging on the roof of his home. After being rescued by his mother, he was transported by an ambulance and a rapid response car (RRC) with doctors, nurses, and paramedics on board, and admitted to our hospital. His initial Glasgow Coma Scale score in the RRC was 4. Although he did not undergo intubation and targeted temperature management (TTM), he had no neurological sequelae upon discharge. To the best of our knowledge, this report is the first to describe the case of a child with a decreased level of consciousness after near-hanging, who was treated without intubation and TTM.
