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

Aim: To assess the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in pediatric mandibular fractures with regards to fracture pattern and localization. Patients and methods: This retrospective study included patients under the age of 17 years that presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin with mandibular fractures over an 11-year long period (2010-2020). Medical records were analyzed for age, gender, injury mechanism, clinical presentation, imaging modalities, fracture pattern, and fracture management. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, normality testing, and Mann-Whitney Results: A total of 91 pediatric patients (23 females and 68 males) presented with mandibular fractures. The majority of mandibular fractures occurred in patients aged 13-16 years (67.0%, Conclusion: Treatment regimens should be carefully selected based on the unique anatomy of the pediatric patient with regards to centers of growth and dentition phase, to restore stomatognathic function and to maintain adequate skeletal growth and eruption of teeth. Clinical significance: This study illustrates the challenges of mandibular fracture management in the pediatric patient. How to cite this article: Hofmann E, Koerdt S, Heiland M,
