Concussion Symptomatology by Symptom Resolution Time in US High School Athletes: Findings From the National Athletic Treatment, Injury and Outcomes Network High School Surveillance Program (NATION-SP).
Article in Journal of athletic training, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
contextConcussions incurred during high school athletics are a significant health concern, and studies examining concussions with a symptom resolution time (SRT) of 15 to 28 days have been limited.
objectiveTo compare concussions that had an SRT of 15 to 28 days with concussions that had an SRT of greater than 28 days among US high school athletes.
designDescriptive epidemiology study.
settingSecondary school athletic training clinics. PATIENTS OR OTHER
participantsSecondary school athletes. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Concussion frequency, symptom number, and symptom prevalence.
resultsAmong all 917 reported concussions (of which 50.8% had missing SRT), 88 had an SRT recorded as 15 to 28 days, and 29 had an SRT recorded as greater than 28 days. Greater frequencies of concussions with an SRT of 15 days or more were reported in boys' sports (n = 78) than girls' sports (n = 39). Boys' football (51.7%) and girls' basketball (11.5%) accounted for the largest proportions of all reported concussions with an SRT of 15 to 28 days; boys' football (58.6%) accounted for the greatest proportion of concussions reported with an SRT greater than 28 days. The average number of symptoms was 6.3 ± 3.4 for concussions with an SRT of 15 to 28 days and 7.2 ± 3.8 for those with an SRT greater than 28 days. The most frequently reported symptoms in concussions with both SRT of 15 to 28 days and greater than 28 days were headache, dizziness, sensitivity to light, and difficulty concentrating. The prevalence of irritability was higher in concussions with an SRT of 15 to 28 days as compared with concussions with an SRT greater than 28 days (26.1% versus 13.8%); visual problems (48.3% versus 35.2%) and hyperexcitability (24.1% versus 15.9%) were more prevalent in concussions with an SRT greater than 28 days, although differences were not statistically significant.
conclusionsSymptom prevalence and total count were comparable between concussions with an SRT of 15 to 28 days and those with an SRT of greater than 28 days with no statistically significant difference, suggesting that symptom burdens within these groups are more similar than they are different.
