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

Introduction: Children, due to their naturally active behavior, and adolescents, because of their exploratory tendencies and engagement in risky behaviors, are more vulnerable to injuries such as falls. The purpose of this study is to investigate the trend of morbidity, mortality, and burden of unintentional fall in Iran. Methods: Indicators including prevalence, incidence, death, years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and DALY for two genders in Iran were extracted from GBD 2021. A joinpoint regression analysis was used to examine the pattern of changes. Results: During the study period (1990-2021), 6583 deaths from unintentional fall occurred in the adolescents in Iran. Of these, 77.1% ( Conclusions: Although incidence, prevalence, mortality, DALY, YLL, and YLD rates have declined over the past three decades, the burden of unintentional falls among adolescents-especially boys-remains substantial. Prioritizing targeted prevention for high-risk groups and strengthening safety education and environmental safety measures are essential policy actions.
