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

introductionThe precise temperature for optimal neuroprotection in infants with neonatal encephalopathy is unclear. Our aim was to assess systemic effects of whole-body cooling to 35 °C, 33.5 °C, and 30 °C in a piglet model of perinatal asphyxia.

methodsTwenty-eight anesthetized male piglets aged <24 h underwent hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and were randomized to normothermia or cooling to rectal temperature (Trec) 35 °C, 33.5 °C, or 30 °C during 2-26 h after insult (n = 7 in each group). HR, MABP, and Trec were recorded continuously.

resultsFive animals cooled to 30 °C had fatal cardiac arrests. During 30 °C cooling, heart rate (HR) was lower vs. normothermia (P < 0.001). Although mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) did not vary between groups, more fluid boluses were needed at 30 °C than at normothermia (P < 0.02); dopamine use was higher at 30 °C than at normothermia or 35 °C (P = 0.005 and P = 0.02, respectively). Base deficit was increased at 30 °C at 12, 24, and 36 h vs. all other groups (P < 0.05), pH was acidotic at 36 h vs. normothermia (P = 0.04), and blood glucose was higher for the 30 °C group at 12 h vs. the normothermia and 35 °C groups (P < 0.05). Potassium was lower at 12 h in the 30 °C group vs. the 33.5 °C and 35 °C groups. There was no difference in cortisol level between groups. DISCUSSION: Cooling to 30 °C led to metabolic derangement and more cardiac arrests and deaths than cooling to 33.5 °C or 35 °C. Inadvertent overcooling should be avoided.
