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

The Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) is a widely implemented tool for predicting outcomes in trauma patients. However, the application of the TRISS in intensive care units (ICUs) is limited, and data from international sources are scarce, as it requires adaptation to the demands of the specialized ICU environment. This article aimed to evaluate the predictive performance of the TRISS in critically ill adult patients with polytrauma admitted to ICU and to compare its prognostic accuracy against established ICU scoring systems. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and CINAHL, in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The review included studies evaluating the predictive performance of TRISS in adult polytrauma patients admitted to the ICU. Two reviewers independently conducted study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. Cohen's d values were synthesized via random-effects meta-analysis. Heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed using I
