Provider Survey on Burn Care in India.
Article in European burn journal, 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
backgroundBurns result in approximately 180,000 deaths annually, with the majority occurring in rural regions of Africa and Southeast Asia. This study aimed to assess the available resources, key challenges, and potential solutions in burn care from the perspective of healthcare providers in India.
methodsAn online survey was conducted among burn care professionals across India. The survey was disseminated via social media platforms, burn care networks, and hospital representatives.
resultsA total of 105 respondents, primarily from tertiary care centers, participated in the survey. Of these, 64.2% were affiliated with government hospitals, and 40.1% served catchment areas extending beyond 300 km. Dedicated burn units were present in 88.0% of government hospitals, compared to 66.9% in non-government facilities. Treatment costs were significantly lower in government hospitals, with 88.8% offering care either free of charge or at minimal cost (
conclusionsThe findings reveal significant gaps in staff training, intensive care monitoring, and infection prevention. Many patients initially seek help from traditional healers, often delaying appropriate treatment and worsening outcomes. Enhancing education, implementing standard monitoring practices, and ensuring adherence to clinical protocols are critical steps toward improving burn care outcomes in India.
