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 shock room treatment of severely injured and polytraumatized patients has become established as a model for the treatment of non-traumatological critically ill patients. For the treatment of trauma patients the term trauma team is therefore used. This article presents the evidence-based requirements for the trauma shock room. In addition, the reasons why a trauma team improves the outcome are discussed. The composition of a trauma team depends partly on the organizational regulations of the individual hospitals but also on their level of care. This is relevant for certification as a trauma center. The criteria for trauma team activation is a decisive criterion for the quality of care and resource-saving use. For quality control and to reduce overtriage and undertriage, it is shown which parameters can be used to assess when trauma team activation has been appropriate.
