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

Localized brain hypothermia (HYPO) can be achieved by infusing cold saline into the carotid artery of animals and patients. Studies suggest that HYPO improves behavioral and histological outcomes in focal ischemia models. Given that ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) share pathophysiological overlap, we tested whether cold saline infusion is safe and neuroprotective when given during collagenase-induced ICH. Eighty-five adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Experiment 1 investigated brain and body temperature changes associated with a cold saline infusion paradigm that was scaled from patients according to brain weight and blood volume (3 mL/20-minute infusion). Experiment 2 determined whether HYPO aggravated bleeding volume. Experiment 3 investigated if cerebral edema or elemental concentrations were altered by HYPO. We also collected core body temperature and activity data through telemetry. Experiment 4 investigated whether behavioral outcomes (e.g., skilled reaching) and tissue loss were influenced by HYPO. Our HYPO protocol decreased the ipsilateral striatal temperature by ∼0.20°C (
