Biochemical markers of myocardial contusion after blunt chest trauma.
Review in European journal of trauma and emergency surgery : official publication of the European Trauma Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
One of the most common manifestations of cardiac injury because of trauma is myocardial contusion. Today, the blurred definition and wide range of nonspecific clinical presentations led to absence in consensus of diagnostic pathways and criteria. Currently, the marker of cardiac injury measured at clinical level is troponin and instrumental diagnostic tool is ECG. The patients with elevated troponin level after the chest trauma should be suspected to have myocardial contusion as cardiogenic shock or arrhythmia might take place as a complication. The release of DAMPs after the trauma has been observed as a part of inflammatory response to it. HMGB1 protein and histone levels were found to be elevated in patients with trauma and associated to recruit the inflammation. In this review the potential of these molecules to be used as diagnostic markers of myocardial contusion is discussed. Moreover, the obstacles for implementing DAMPS to clinical protocols and future research directions are included.
