Fragmented geographies and trauma pathways in the Middle East.
Review in BMJ global health, 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
Enduring and interlocking conflicts across the Middle East over the last 25 years have generated injuries on a large scale. While civilian injuries in the region have been widely documented, very little is known about civilian trauma pathways-the system designed to manage patients from the moment of injury through to rehabilitation. Military trauma pathways are premised on rapid evacuation, coordinated referral and timely access to treatment, but replicating these systems for civilians, under conditions of active and ongoing conflict, presents many challenges. Civilians can be injured almost anywhere-far away from hospitals, without access to ambulances, emergency and other services-and in absence of a clear trauma pathway, their care trajectory in the weeks and years after sustaining injury is highly inequitable and geographically fragmented. This analysis examines some of the problems posed by the geographical fragmentation of civilian trauma pathways and reflects on what might be done to rebuild and improve them.
