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

Isolated thoracic trauma is rare in children. Because of their small body size, the trauma often also affects other spaces, such as the abdomen and head, and these coexistences significantly increase the rate of mortality. However, in isolated thoracic traumas, the children can quickly recover if they can survive the initial period of trauma. Pediatric thoracic trauma cases can have a different clinical course compared to adults due to the unique anatomic and physiologic properties of children's thoracic cages. Their ribs are nonossified and are very elastic, and therefore, as their ribs can sustain significant deformation without breaking, some significant intrathoracic injuries can be overlooked. In this review, the most common thoracic injuries, including pulmonary contusion, hemopneumothorax, pulmonary laceration, rib fractures, flail chest, tracheobronchial injuries, traumatic asphyxia, and other less common mediastinal injuries are discussed in detail in regard of clinical presentation and management.
