Estimation of Disability Adjusted Life Years in Pediatric Injury Patients at a Zonal Referral Hospital in Northern Tanzania.
Article in Sage open pediatrics. 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
Objective: This study aimed to estimates Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for pediatric injury patients at a zonal referral hospital. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study using pediatric injury registry data, DALYs for pediatric injured patients was calculated by adding the Years of life lost (YLL) and Years lived with disability (YLD). Discounting rate of 3%, age weighting parameter of 0.04 and Constant 0.1658 were considered during analysis. Results: This study included 1000 pediatric injury patients with median age of 7 years, mostly male 639 (63.9%). Road traffic injuries were the leading cause 341 (34.1%), and 65 (6.5%) died, burns caused 27 (41.6%) of deaths. Pediatric injuries resulted in over 4500 DALYs, with road traffic injuries contributing the most (1650 DALYs). Conclusion: This study reveals the high burden of pediatric injuries, with males contributing most DALYs. Road traffic injuries significantly contribute to disabilities, highlighting the need for child-focused interventions.
