Temperature Control After Cardiac Arrest: A Narrative Review.
Review in Advances in therapy, 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
Cardiac arrest (CA) is a critical public health issue affecting more than half a million Americans annually. The main determinant of outcome post-CA is hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI), and temperature control is currently the only evidence-based, guideline-recommended intervention targeting secondary brain injury. Temperature control is a key component of a post-CA care bundle; however, conflicting evidence challenges its wide implementation across the vastly heterogeneous population of CA survivors. Here, we critically appraise the available literature on temperature control in HIBI, detail how the evidence has been integrated into clinical practice, and highlight the complications associated with its use and the timing of neuroprognostication after CA. Future clinical trials evaluating different temperature targets, rates of rewarming, duration of cooling, and identifying which patient phenotype benefits from different temperature control methods are needed to address these prevailing knowledge gaps.
