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 National Danish Injury Cohort (NDIC) is a nationwide, register-based cohort established to examine the incidence of total and specific injuries in Denmark and to provide insights into causes and consequences. Comprehensive individual-level information for this cohort is stored in the NDIC dataset, serving as a foundation for analyses of injury determinants and supporting the planning and evaluation of preventive measures aimed at reducing injury-related harm. Individuals registered in the Danish National Patient Register with an injury from 2010 onwards are included in the dataset. Additionally, it comprises persons in the Cause of Death Register whose deaths was attributed to accidents, violence, or suicide. The cohort is currently updated through 2022 and contains information on more than 7.2 million primary injury contacts and 26 thousand accident-related deaths. Analyses based on NDIC demonstrated substantial demographic and geographical disparities in the incidence rates of injuries. Overall, men exhibited higher rates of both injury incidents and injury‑related mortality compared with women. Marked differences were observed when stratifying by sex and age, as well as by region of residence. NDIC offers a solid data foundation facilitating research into injury trends, causes, and impacts, including disparities across social groups and geographic areas. It presents unique opportunities to explore novel research ideas to boost injury prevention, improve targeting of interventions, and reduce health inequalities. Strengthening this research area will help further reinforce NDIC's role in injury surveillance and evidence‑based policymaking.
