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 production and use of button batteries (BBs) has gradually increased over the decades and has become commonplace in today's world. As more household products have been using this type of battery, ingestions of these objects continue to rise. Over 83,000 battery ingestions in children were reported by the National Poison Data System between the years of 1985 and 2017. Over 77% of these were children less than 6 years of age. Between 1999 and 2019, the United States National Poison Data System reported a 66.7% increase in yearly ingestion of button batteries (6.98 to 10.46 per million population) and a 10-fold increase in complications. In this article, we review the epidemiology, mechanism of injuries to the esophagus and surrounding structures, complications detected with imaging, and management of button battery ingestions in the pediatric age group.
