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

Cerebrovascular surgery can benefit from an intraoperative system that conducts continuous monitoring of cerebral blood flow (CBF). Such a system must be handy, non-invasive, and directly integrated into the surgical workflow. None of the currently available techniques, considered alone, meets all these criteria. Here, we introduce the SurgeON™ system: a newly developed non-invasive modular tool which transmits high-resolution Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging (LSCI) directly onto the eyepiece of the surgical microscope. In preclinical rodent and rabbit models, we show that this system enabled the detection of acute perfusion changes as well as the recording of temporal response patterns and degrees of flow changes in various microvascular settings, such as middle cerebral artery occlusion, femoral artery clipping, and complete or incomplete cortical vessel cautery. During these procedures, a real-time visualization of vasculature and CBF was available in high spatial resolution through the eyepiece as a direct overlay on the live morphological view of the surgical field. Upon comparison with indocyanine green angiography videoangiography (ICG-VA) imaging, also operable via SurgeON, we found that direct-LSCI can produce greater information than ICG-VA and that continuous display of data is advantageous for performing immediate LSCI-guided adjustments in real time.
