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

Our recent improved understanding of traumatic brain injury (TBI) comes largely from cohort studies of TBI patients with indication for computed tomography (CT). Using CT head as an inclusion criterion may overestimate poor outcomes after TBI with Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 13-15. We aimed to compare outcomes after TBI in adults who had a head CT scan (with negative findings) versus those who had no CT when presenting to an emergency department. This was a secondary analysis of a trial that recruited adults with GCS = 13-15 after TBI in Vancouver, Canada. We included 493 participants (18-69 years, 54% female), after removing
