Article in Neurophotonics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04904172 (Effectiveness of NIRS), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

We investigated the feasibility of using frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (fdNIRS) to study brain oxygenation in the first few hours of stroke onset. The OxiplexTS(®) fdNIRS system was used in this study. Using a standard probing protocol based on surface landmarks, we measured brain tHb and [Formula: see text] in healthy volunteers, cadavers, and acute stroke patients within 9 h of stroke onset and 3 days later. We obtained measurements from 11 controls, 5 cadavers, and 5 acute stroke patients. [Formula: see text] values were significantly lower in cadavers compared to the controls and stroke patients. Each stroke patient had at least one area with reduced [Formula: see text] on the stroke side compared to the contralateral side. The evolution of tHb and [Formula: see text] at 3 days differed depending on whether a large infarct occurred. This study shows the proof of principle that quantified measurements of brain oxygenation using NIRS could be used in the hectic environment of acute stroke management. It also highlights the current technical limitations and future challenges in the development of this unique bedside monitoring tool for stroke.
