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

purpose of reviewTraumatic brain injury (TBI) has a significant burden of disease worldwide and outcomes vary widely. Current prognostic tools fail to fully account for this variability despite incorporating clinical, radiographic, and biochemical data. This variance could possibly be explained by genotypic differences in the patient population. In this review, we explore single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) TBI outcome association studies. RECENT

findingsIn recent years, SNP association studies in TBI have focused on global, neurocognitive/neuropsychiatric, and physiologic outcomes. While the APOE gene has been the most extensively studied, other genes associated with neural repair, cell death, the blood-brain barrier, cerebral edema, neurotransmitters, mitochondria, and inflammatory cytokines have all been examined for their association with various outcomes following TBI. The results have been mixed across studies and even within genes. SNP association studies provide insight into mechanisms by which outcomes may vary following TBI. Their individual clinical utility, however, is often limited by small sample sizes and poor reproducibility. In the future, they may serve as hypothesis generating for future therapeutic targets.
