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

backgroundThe compensatory reserve measurement (CRM) has been established to accurately measure the body's total integrated capacity to compensate for physiologic states of reduced central blood volume and predict hemodynamic decompensation associated with inadequate tissue oxygenation. We previously demonstrated that African American (AA) women have a higher tolerance to reductions in central blood volume. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that the CRM would identify racial differences during simulated hemorrhage, before the onset of traditional signs/symptoms.

methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis during simulated hemorrhage using lower-body negative pressure (LBNP) in 23 AA (22 ± 1 years; 24 ± 1 kg/m) and 31 white women (WW) (20 ± 1 years; 23 ± 1 kg/m). Beat-by-beat blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded during progressive lower body negative pressure to presyncope. The BP waveforms were analyzed using a machine-learning algorithm to derive the CRM at each lower body negative pressure stage.

resultsResting mean arterial BP (AA, 78 ± 3 mm Hg vs. WW, 74 ± 2 mm Hg) and HR (AA, 68 ± 2 bpm vs. WW, 65 ± 2 bpm) were similar between groups. The CRM progressively decreased during LBNP in both groups; however, the rate of decline in the CRM was less (p < 0.05) in AA. The CRM was 4% higher in AA at -15 mm Hg LBNP and progressively increased to 21% higher at -50 mm Hg LBNP (p < 0.05). However, changes in BP and HR were not different between groups.

conclusionThese data support the notion that the greater tolerance to simulated hemorrhage induced by LBNP in AA women can be explained by their greater capacity to protect the reserve to compensate for progressive central hypovolemia compared with WW, independent of standard vital signs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Diagnostic test, level II.
