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

backgroundIn West Africa, domestic accidents are generally underestimated, and only few scientific population-based studies have assessed their prevalence. When available, existing data often focus only a single type of accident. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of domestic accidents and their determinants among children aged 0-14 years in the Orodara health district in Burkina Faso.

methodsWe surveyed a fixed number of households across all 37 villages of the Orodara health district, Kénédougou Province, Burkina Faso. The dependent variable was the occurrence of a domestic accident in a child aged 0 to 14 years, defined as an accident in the past six months that required treatment (coded 1 for "yes", and 0 for "no" otherwise). Independent variables included sociodemographic characteristics of the household and child. Data were analyzed using Stata software version 17.0, applying logistic regression with a 5% significance threshold.

resultsData from 1578 children from 802 mothers in 805 households were included in the analysis. We recorded 99 domestic accidents, corresponding to a prevalence of 6.27%. The main determinants of domestic accidents were the place of residence (adjusted odds ratio (ORa) = 2.9, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.44-5.84, p = 0.003), and the child's age, with children over 12 months being more likely to experience domestic accidents than those under 12 months.

conclusionCompared to the literature, domestic accidents are relatively uncommon in the Orodara health district of Burkina Faso, a result likely influenced by our study design. The main sociodemographic factors associated with higher injury risk were younger age and rural residence. The development of public awareness-raising strategies and campaigns may reduce the occurrence of domestic accidents in children.
