Optimal brain protection in aortic arch surgery.
Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
There is considerable debate with regard to the optimal cerebral protection strategy during aortic arch surgery. There are three contemporary techniques in use which include straight deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA), DHCA with retrograde cerebral perfusion (DHCA + RCP), and moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest with antegrade cerebral perfusion (MHCA + ACP). Appropriate application of these methods ensures appropriate cerebral, myocardial, and visceral protection. Each of these techniques has benefits and drawbacks and ensuring coordinated circulation management strategy is critical to safe performance of aortic arch surgery. In this report, we will review various cannulation strategies, review logistics of hypothermia, and review the relevant literature to outline the strengths and weaknesses of these various cerebral protection strategies.
