Practice Patterns after the Therapeutic Hypothermia After Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Out-of-Hospital Trial: A Survey of Pediatric Critical Care Physicians.
Article in Journal of pediatric intensive care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
The Therapeutic Hypothermia After Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Out-of-Hospital (THAPCA-OH) Trial showed therapeutic hypothermia, versus normothermia, did not significantly improve 1-year survival with good neurobehavioral outcome. Our survey of pediatric critical care physicians, designed to assess the use of targeted temperature management (TTM) after publication of the main THAPCA-OH Trial results, found most respondents were aware of trial results, and over 90% agreed THAPCA-OH was well-designed with important clinical outcomes. While most respondents reported TTM usage consistent with THAPCA-OH results in different patient scenarios, 15% did not select TTM for fever management. Since trials prior to THAPCA-OH established that fever is harmful following brain injury, the continued incomplete adoption of TTM warrants further research on challenges and facilitators to the adoption of clinical trial findings.
