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

Concussions are caused by physical trauma to the head, face, or neck and can be sustained while surfing, increasing the risk of drowning. The purpose of this pilot study was to establish a preliminary assessment of concussion knowledge in a group of adult recreational surfers. Using the standardized Concussion Knowledge Index, an anonymous survey was conducted with 55 surfers. The Concussion Knowledge Index and similar statistical measures were used in a previous study of adult soccer players in England. Data from these 2 groups were compared. The preliminary data suggests that the group of adult surfers demonstrate more concussion knowledge than the group of adult soccer players. Further study into surfers' knowledge of concussion with a larger sample size could increase the clinical utility and generalizability of this study.
