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

We present a pilot clinical application of coherent hemodynamics spectroscopy (CHS), a technique to investigate cerebral hemodynamics at the microcirculatory level. CHS relies on frequency-resolved measurements of induced cerebral hemodynamic oscillations that are measured with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and analyzed with a hemodynamic model. We have used cyclic inflation (200 mmHg) and deflation of a pneumatic cuff placed around the subject's thigh at seven frequencies in the range of 0.03 to 0.17 Hz to generate CHS spectra and to obtain a set of physiological parameters that include the blood transit times in the cerebral microcirculation, the cutoff frequency for cerebral autoregulation, and blood volume ratios across the three different compartments. We have investigated five hemodialysis patients, during the hemodialysis procedure, and six healthy subjects. We have found that the blood transit time in the cerebral microcirculation is significantly longer in hemodialysis patients with respect to healthy subjects. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of autoregulation efficiency and blood volume ratios. The demonstration of the applicability of CHS in a clinical setting and its sensitivity to the highly important cerebral microcirculation may open up new opportunities for NIRS applications in research and in medical diagnostics and monitoring.
