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

Therapeutic hypothermia for severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been repeatedly studied, but no past studies have assessed the detailed head computed tomography (CT) findings. We sought to investigate individual CT findings of severe TBI patients treated with targeted temperature management utilizing the head CT database obtained from the Brain Hypothermia study. Enrolled patients underwent either mild therapeutic hypothermia (32.0°C-34.0°C) or fever control (35.5°C-37.0°C). We assessed individual head CT images on arrival and after rewarming and investigated the correlations with outcomes. The initial CT data were available for 125 patients (hypothermia group = 80, fever control group = 45). Baseline characteristics and CT findings, such as hematoma thickness and midline shift, were similar in all aspects between the two groups. The favorable outcomes in the hypothermia and fever control groups were 38 (47.5%) and 24 (53.3%;
