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

Mass casualty incidents (MCIs) can transpire through a multitude of mechanisms, the most common of which are mass shootings. These events result in several injuries and/or deaths and often strain or overwhelm available medical resources. Since the injuries that result from these incidents vary in type and severity, effective identification and triage is needed. Bystanders, first responders, ancillary medical staff, nurses, and physicians are integral in managing the victims, and efficient communication is required to provide timely and adequate medical care. From soft tissue injury and burns to facial trauma, the craniomaxillofacial surgeon is a crucial member of the team and their expertise is vital in triaging and in treating the injured. This review discusses triage, patterns of injury, and the role of craniomaxillofacial surgeons in MCIs.
