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

backgroundCerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most frequent monogenic cause of cerebral ischemia, but reliable biomarkers to monitor the disease are lacking. AIMS AND

objectivesTo evaluate cerebral autoregulation (CA), vasoreactivity (VR), and neurovascular coupling (NVC) in CADASIL patients through a battery of dynamic transcranial Doppler tests.

methodsWe screened our database for all pre-dementia CADASIL cases. We monitored cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) with transcranial Doppler, blood pressure, and expiratory carbon dioxide (CO

resultsWe included 27 CADASIL patients and 20 healthy controls with similar age and sexes. CA and VR were similar between groups. However, NVC was significantly affected in CADASIL patients, with lower magnitudes of CBFV upsurge (overshoot 19 ± 5 vs 26 ± 6%, p = 0.013; gain 12 ± 7 vs 17 ± 5%, p = 0.003) and altered time behavior during visual stimulation (natural frequency 0.18 ± 0.06 vs 0.24 ± 0.06 Hz, p = 0.005; rate time 0.7 ± 1.7 vs 2.7 ± 3.5 s, p = 0.025).

conclusionOur results express a primary and selective involvement of the neurovascular unit in CADASIL rather than a generalized cerebral vasomotor disturbance. Functional cerebrovascular testing could be useful in patient evaluation and monitoring.
