Epidemiological investigation of traumatic spinal cord injury caused by object strike in China: strategies for workplace safety improvement.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveBeing struck by an object is a major cause of traumatic spinal cord injury in China. This study aims to investigate epidemiological characteristics of spinal cord injury caused by object strike.
methodsThis research analysed data from 435 cases of strike-induced spinal cord injury from 2013 to 2022. The collected information encompassed gender, age, level of neurological injury, surgical interventions, expense, occupation, and other relevant factors. χ2tests and Mann-Whitney U test were used with a statistical significance level of 0.05.
resultsThe male-to-female ratio was 11.8:1. The 30-44 age group was more likely to suffer from complete spinal cord injuries (70.5%). The predominant occupations were workers (58.9%) and farmers (15.2%). Manual labourers are usually injured in the workplace (89.4%) with a high surgical rate (95.3%).
conclusionYoung and middle-aged males engaged in manual work constitute the primary demographic for strike-induced spinal cord injury. Safety education in workplaces such as construction sites and mines should be emphasized to reduce the occurrence of spinal cord injuries caused by object strikes.
