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

Purpose: To analyze mechanisms, diagnoses, and incidence of youth snowboarding-related injuries presenting to US emergency departments. Methods: Data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System were analyzed for pediatric snowboarding injuries (≤18 years old) from 2012 to 2022. Data were collected for mechanism of injury, diagnosis, location of injury, and disposition. National estimates (NEs) were calculated using the statistical sample weight of the corresponding hospital assigned by the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System. Linear regressions were used to analyze injuries over time. Results: In total, 3,036 (NEs = 120,140) pediatric snowboarding injuries were included in this study. Average age was 14.0 ± 2.7 years. The most common mechanism of injury was impact with the ground (NEs = 97,120, 80.8%). The most injured body parts were 719 wrists (NEs = 115,505, 96.1%), 580 heads (NEs = 22,258, 18.5%), and 381 shoulders (NEs = 17,269, 14.4%). The most common diagnoses were fractures (NEs = 48,886, 40.7%), strains/sprains (NEs = 22,948, 19.1%), and concussions (NEs = 12,553, 10.4%). Fractures primarily involved the wrist (NEs = 18,122, 37.1%), lower arm (NEs = 12,348, 25.3%), and shoulder (NEs = 9,073, 18.6%). From 2012 to 2022, there were average decreases of 1,051 overall injuries per year ( Conclusions: Pediatric snowboarding injuries demonstrated a large decline from 2012 to 2022. Fractures are the most common diagnosis, primarily affecting the wrist and shoulder. The head was the second most injured body part, and concussions were the third most common diagnosis. Clinical Relevance: This study highlights decreasing injuries despite growing popularity of snowboarding, bringing to light the importance of protective equipment, on-site injury management, and implementation of clinics at resort bases.
