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

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) afflicts approximately 70 million people worldwide annually, with patients aged 65 years and older accounting for an increasing proportion of TBI patients. Older patients also experience increased morbidity and mortality post-TBI compared to their younger counterparts. Nevertheless, clinical trials often exclude older TBI patients, and age-specific TBI treatment is lacking. We hypothesized that the
