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

Sports-related concussion continues to be a rapidly growing public health concern in nearly all sports, and at all levels, in children and adolescents. Evidence-based clinical guidelines are constantly evolving but those specific to the pediatric population are less robust. There are nuances to treatment of the developing pediatric brain in the context of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The purposes of this review are to (1) analyze the differences in concussion symptom presentation and recovery in children versus adults, (2) describe the role of the physical therapist in management of pediatric concussion, (3) examine current recommendations for return to participation in school and return to sport, and (4) highlight the psychological implications of concussion in the young athlete. We find that additional research is needed in nearly all aspects of concussion in the young athletic population. The current evidence stresses the importance of an active approach to recovery using a stepwise progression.
