Microcirculation and tissue oxygenation in the head and limbs during hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
Article in Diving and hyperbaric medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
introductionHyperbaric oxygen (HBO) exposure for 10-15 min has been shown to reduce peripheral blood flow due to vasoconstriction. However, the relationship between decreased peripheral blood flow and the therapeutic effects of HBO treatment on peripheral circulatory disorders remain unknown. Longer exposures have been reported to have vasodilatory effects and increase peripheral blood flow. This study investigated the effect of HBO treatment on blood flow and transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO
methodsTwenty healthy volunteers aged 20-65 years (nine males) participated in this study. All participants breathed oxygen for 60 min at 253.3 kPa. Peripheral blood flow using laser Doppler flowmetry and TcPO
resultsPeripheral blood flow in each body part decreased by 7-23% at the beginning of the HBO exposure, followed by a slow increase. Post-exposure, peripheral blood flow increased 4-76% in each body part. TcPO
conclusionsThe findings of the current study suggest vasoconstriction during HBO treatment is transient, and even when present does not inhibit the development of increased tissue oxygen partial pressure. These findings are relevant to studies investigating changes in peripheral blood flow during HBO treatment in patients with circulatory disorders.
