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

Background: Although persisting to be a public health hazard in Indonesia, motorcycle-related traumatic brain injury (TBI) due to road traffic accidents (RTA) lacks comprehensive national data. We aim to study the epidemiological pattern of motorcycle-related TBI and analyze the determinants related to mortality in the only neurosurgical center in the rural province of North Maluku, Indonesia. Methods: Using the North Maluku Database in Neurosurgery register, information regarding age, sex, health insurance, alcohol use, point of referral, degree of severity, brain computed tomography abnormalities, helmet use, surgery, injury-to-admission time (IAT), and relationship to the motorcycle were obtained from patients admitted to Chasan Boesoirie General Hospital, Ternate, in 2021-2022. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate associations with in-hospital mortality. Results: Of all RTA-related TBI patients ( Conclusion: The young and productive males dominated the motorcycle-related TBI patients in North Maluku. Poor compliance with road traffic laws, as demonstrated by a considerable proportion of underage, alcohol-intoxicated, and helmetless patients, necessitated prompt actions from all related elements.
