Accidents among adults in Germany - Results from the accident module of the Panel 'Health in Germany' 2024.
Article in Journal of health monitoring, 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
Background: Accidents cause human suffering, high costs and are a significant cause of death. In 2024, 34,060 people died in accidents in Germany. Data on non-fatal accidents is provided by the Panel 'Health in Germany' 2024 conducted by the Robert Koch Institute. Methods: In the accident module of the study, 26,923 people aged 18 and over provided information about accident-related injuries in the last twelve months that required medical treatment. Detailed information was recorded about the last accident. Accident prevalence (95 % CI) and other results on accidents (proportions with 95 % CI) were calculated. Results: Overall, 9.5 % of women and 10.5 % of men report at least one accidental injury. The difference is significant. The majority of accidents occurred at home (36.0 %), followed by traffic, leisure and work. Accidents occur significantly more often at home and less often at work for women than for men. There are differences in workplace accidents among men depending on their level of education. The most common cause of accidents is falls (30.4 %). Significantly more accidents involving falls occur among women than among men. Almost one in five accident victims was treated as an inpatient in hospital (18.7 %). Conclusions: The results highlight the social relevance of accidental injuries. Initial analyses of the accident module identify key accident locations and affected groups. Further evaluations will reveal prevention potential in greater detail.
