Breed-specific Risk Factors and Clinical Outcomes in Pediatric Dog Bite Injuries: A 14-year Retrospective Analysis.
Article in Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 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: Dog bites are a major cause of pediatric injury, resulting in serious physical and psychological effects. This study examines breed-specific injury patterns, management, and outcomes. Methods: A retrospective review of pediatric dog bite cases from 2010 to 2024 was conducted. Variables included demographics, injury characteristics, dog breed, management, and outcomes (eg, infection, scarring, revisions). Descriptive and statistical analyses were performed. Results: Among 430 patients, the median age was 8.0 years (interquartile range 4.0-11.0). Bite frequency decreased with age (Spearman rho = -0.67; Conclusions: Objective wound characteristics were more informative than breed classification for predicting management needs and scar outcomes. Prevention should prioritize safer child-dog interactions in familiar settings. Improved structured documentation may strengthen future risk stratification.
