An overview of clinical cerebral microdialysis in acute brain injury.
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Cerebral microdialysis may be used in patients with severe brain injury to monitor their cerebral physiology. In this article we provide a concise synopsis with illustrations and original images of catheter types, their structure, and how they function. Where and how catheters are inserted, their identification on imaging modalities (CT and MRI), together with the roles of glucose, lactate/pyruvate ratio, glutamate, glycerol and urea are summarized in acute brain injury. The research applications of microdialysis including pharmacokinetic studies, retromicrodialysis, and its use as a biomarker for efficacy of potential therapies are outlined. Finally, we explore limitations and pitfalls of the technique, as well as potential improvements and future work that is needed to progress and expand the use of this technology.
