Hospital admissions for non-fatal drowning in Finland, 2002-2023: a nationwide population-based register study.
Article in Injury epidemiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundNationwide epidemiological data on non-fatal drowning are lacking. The purpose of this study was to provide and analyze data on incidence and time-trends of hospital inpatient admissions for drowning in Finland. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe Finnish Hospital Discharge Register was retrospectively searched for all inpatient hospitalizations due to unintentional and intentional drowning from January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2023 and included the entire Finnish resident population. The main outcome measure was the annual number of and crude incidence rates (n/100 000 population) of hospital admissions for drowning. The Poisson regression method was used to analyze time-trends.
resultsA total of 1205 patients (mean 54.8 per year, CI
conclusionsNon-fatal drownings are crucial for assessing the overall burden of drowning although, in Finland, hospital admissions for drowning have significantly declined, and fatal drownings outnumber non-fatal drownings, at least those requiring inpatient hospital care. The epidemiological profile of non-fatal drowning may substantially vary, even among high-income countries.
