Practice variability in the perioperative management of pediatric moyamoya disease in North America.
Article in Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundRevascularization surgery decreases the long-term risk of stroke in children with moyamoya but carries an increased risk of perioperative ischemic events. Evidence-based approaches to safe perioperative management of children with moyamoya are limited. We aimed to understand practice variability in perioperative moyamoya care.
methodsNeurologists, neurosurgeons, and intensivists practicing in North America with expertise in perioperative pediatric moyamoya care participated in a 138-item anonymous survey focused on interdisciplinary perioperative care surrounding indirect revascularization surgery.
resultsMany perioperative care practices vary substantially between participants. Timing of resumption of antiplatelet therapy postoperatively, choice of sedative agents and vasopressors, goal blood pressures, rate and duration of intravenous fluid administration, and red blood cell transfusion thresholds are among the most variable practices.
conclusionsThis practice variability survey highlights several important knowledge gaps and areas of equipoise that should be targets for future investigation and consensus-building efforts.
