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

While only 20% of the nation's population lives in rural areas, 40% of the Appalachian population resides in rural areas. Due to the rural nature of this region we hypothesized this may have implications regarding the outcomes of traumatic testicular injuries (TTI), such as increased rate of organ loss. Here in, we report the findings of our 10-year retrospective study analyzing patients presenting with TTI to our rural tertiary care facility in comparison to an 8-year review of 8,030 TTI from the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB
