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) is one of the leading causes of death and disability. Animal and clinical studies of TBI have greatly changed the clinical practice of TBI with the development and application of new technologies. However, with the development of forensic science, legal issues related to TBI continue to emerge, and it is still far from satisfactory that the practical application of relevant research findings as legal evidence in court practice. This review discusses an overview of the latest progress of TBI through neuropathological changes, secondary injury mechanisms, postmortem neuroimaging, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral impairments, biomarkers, and the effects of toxins and drugs on brain injury from a forensic perspective. Meanwhile, we highlight the interpretability and limitations of findings on TBI in legal proceedings are ongoing challenges.
