Identification of Demographic and Clinical Prognostic Factors in Traumatic Intraventricular Hemorrhage.
Review in Neurocritical care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe presence of traumatic intraventricular hemorrhage (tIVH) following traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with worse neurological outcome. The mechanisms by which patients with tIVH have worse outcome are not fully understood and research is ongoing, but foundational studies that explore prognostic factors within tIVH populations are also lacking. This study aimed to further identify and characterize demographic and clinical variables within a subset of patients with TBI and tIVH that may be implicated in tIVH outcome.
methodsIn this observational study, we reviewed a large prospective TBI database to determine variables present on admission that predicted neurological outcome 6 months after injury. A review of 7,129 patients revealed 211 patients with tIVH on admission and 6-month outcome data. Hypothesized risk factors were tested in univariate analyses with significant variables (p < 0.05) included in logistic and linear regression models. Following the addition of either the Rotterdam computed tomography or Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, we employed a backward selection process to determine significant variables in each multivariate model.
resultsOur study found that that hypotension (odds ratio [OR] = 0.35, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.13-0.94, p = 0.04) and the hemoglobin level (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.09-1.63, p = 0.006) were significant predictors in the Rotterdam model, whereas only the hemoglobin level (OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.06-1.56, p = 0.01) was a significant predictor in the GCS model.
conclusionsThis study represents one of the largest investigations into prognostic factors for patients with tIVH and demonstrates that admission hemoglobin level and hypotension are associated with outcomes in this patient population. These findings add value to established prognostic scales, could inform future predictive modeling studies, and may provide potential direction in early medical management of patients with tIVH.
