Kinetics of tissue oxygenation index during fast and slow cardiopulmonary bypass initiation.
Trial report in Perfusion, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionDespite being a daily clinical application in cardiac operating theaters, an evidence-based approach on how to optimally initiate the heart-lung machine (HLM) to prevent critical phases of cerebral ischemia is still lacking. We therefore designed a study comparing two different initiation times for starting the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
methodsWe conducted a monocentric, randomized, and prospective study comparing the impact of two initiation times, a rapid initiation of 15 s and a slow initiation of 180 s to reach the full target flow rate of 2.5 L/min/m
resultsThe absolute values in tissue oxygenation index (TOI) showed no difference between the groups before and after the CPB with a 10% drop in oxygenation index in both groups due to the hemodilution through the HLM priming. Looking at the kinetics a rapid initiation of CPB produced a higher negative rate of change in TOI with a total of 21% in critical oxygenation readings compared to 6% in the slow initiation group.
conclusionIn order to avoid critical phases of cerebral ischemia during the initiation of CPB for cardiac procedures, we propose an initiation time of at least 90 s to reach the 100% of target flow rate of the HLM.
