Brachial Artery Injury Resulting From a Dog Bite in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pediatric trauma surgeons frequently encounter severe injuries from animal bites, with dog bites being especially prevalent in children, often leading to facial injuries. This paper details the case of a six-year-old male who suffered a dog bite resulting in a rare proximal right brachial artery injury. The bite caused deep lacerations and avulsion injuries, prompting admission to the trauma center, where nonpalpable right radial and ulnar pulses and arm weakness were observed. Surgical intervention, including wound exploration and brachial artery repair using a saphenous vein graft, successfully restored vascular perfusion. This case underscores the urgency of addressing pediatric dog bite injuries through timely exploration, thorough irrigation, and antibiotic prophylaxis, while also highlighting the need for further research on preventive education and clinical guidelines for assessing vascular injuries in such cases.
