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

backgroundChanges in the arterial partial pressure of CO(2) (PaCO(2)) has a direct though transient effect on the cerebral vasculature and cerebral circulation. Decreased PaCO(2) levels lead to vasoconstriction and can result in dangerously low levels of cerebral perfusion that resolve in 4-6 h. It is currently believed that perfusion abnormalities contribute to intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) in the neonate. PaCO(2)-induced vasoconstriction may contribute to the pathology of IVH and PVL.

methodsNear-infrared spectroscopy [NIRS; (INVOS cerebral/somatic oximeter; Somanetics Corporation, Troy, MI, USA)] was utilized to determine changes in regional oxygenation (rSO(2)) of the brain in response to changes in ventilation in isoflurane anesthetized newborn piglets.

resultsChanges in cerebral rSO(2) correlated significantly with end-tidal CO(2) levels and to blood flow in the common carotid artery. This correlation was significant during baseline conditions, after periods of CO(2) loading and during periods of hypothermia.

conclusionsThe results of the study demonstrate the utility of NIRS to accurately reflect changes in cerebral oxygenation and flow to the brain in response to changes in CO(2) levels in anesthetized, ventilated neonatal piglets. The use of NIRS may provide an early alert of low levels of cerebral blood flow and brain oxygenation, potentially helping in preventing the progression of IVH or PVL in the neonate.
