Current Status of US Children's Burn Care and Opportunities for Change.
Review in Annals of surgery open : perspectives of surgical history, education, and clinical approaches, 2026. 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
Importance: The discipline of burn care has been challenged by a declining professional workforce, resulting from changes in general surgery residency training, simultaneous with a multidisciplinary but siloed approach to care. Secondary effects on children's burn care include decreased awareness of where children receive care outside of the American Burn Association (ABA)-verified burn centers, loss of bidirectional education and communication inherent to patient and family-centered care, and good outcome measures. These factors affect disaster planning. Observations: A system of care must be capable of addressing "everyday" pediatric burn care availability before the nation can manage multiple burn victims in a disaster. Pediatric burn care is delivered by a variety of clinicians with complementary skill levels, knowledge, and resources at several types of centers, including verified burn centers caring for children and adults or only children and nonverified children's or acute care hospitals providing pediatric burn care. The current ABA verification process is rigorous but not tiered, making it difficult for many children's hospitals to satisfy these standards. Conclusions: The current landscape of children's burn care has strengths and opportunities in terms of access to care, care delivery, workforce and training, education, data and quality, and research. A national pediatric burn system will: (1) improve the understanding of "everyday" and expert burn care for children, (2) define gaps in children's burn care, including preparedness of the emergency care system where children initially receive care, and (3) anticipate action and implementation strategies to address these gaps.
