Global, regional and national burden of injuries caused by fire, heat, and hot substances from 1990 to 2021.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundBurn injuries, which are caused by fire, heat, and hot substances, are considered a chronic condition due to their long-term effects on the health of affected individuals. Moreover, burn injuries constitute a significant public health issue that cannot be overlooked within the global healthcare system. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study comprehensively analyzed the burden of burn injuries, focusing on variations by Socio-Demographic Index (SDI) levels and Global Burden of Disease (GBD) regions, sex-based disparities, Frontier analysis, and future trend forecasting using the Bayesian Age-Period-Cohort (BAPC) model.
resultsCompared to 1990, the global burden of burn injuries decreased in most regions worldwide in 2021. The majority of regions showed a negative Estimated Annual Percentage Change (EAPC), indicating a continuous decline in Age-Standardized Rate (ASR) annually. And the ASR decreased with the increasing SDI. Moreover, the forecasted trend from 2021 to 2030, indicates a continued decline with a well-fitted projection model.
conclusionsDespite the observed and projected decline in global ASR of burn, the burden of burn remains a significant concern that should not be underestimated.
