Penetrating Head Injury With a Motor Bike Key.
Article in Cureus, 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
Traumatic head injuries can be penetrating and non-penetrating. Penetrating head injuries are usually caused by low to high velocity, either with sharp or blunt objects. Penetrating objects may include knives, nails, forks, scissors, pencils, and even keys. Patients with penetrating brain injuries are mostly involved in road traffic accidents, assault injuries, accidental injuries, or even suicide attempts. This case report focuses on an accidental penetrating brain injury due to a bike key to a 21-year-old male near the left orbital wall. The patient underwent left lateral wall orbitotomy with removal of the foreign body within 12 hours of presentation to the emergency department. With proper multidisciplinary management, the postoperative course was uneventful with no neurological or ophthalmic complications. Prompt intervention in penetrating head injury is needed to get a good postoperative outcome.
