A Medical Miracle: Surviving a Perforating Gunshot Injury to the Neck.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
Gunshot wounds to the neck are considered among the most serious and life-threatening injuries due to the anatomical complexity of the neck and its vital structures. Surviving a perforating wound to the neck depends on various factors, including the location of the injury, the caliber of the weapon used, the type of bullet, the distance from which the patient was shot, prompt medical intervention, and the overall health of the individual. We report a case of miraculous survival following a perforating gunshot wound to the neck, in which no surgical intervention was required. Reconstruction of the bullet trajectory was performed using CT images and a virtual dissection table, Anatomage (Anatomage Inc., California, US), to facilitate the analysis of the factors that contributed to the patient's survival.
