The 2023 AAN/AAP/CNS/SCCM Pediatric and Adult Brain Death/Death by Neurologic Criteria Consensus Practice Guideline: A Comparison With the 2010 and 2011 Guidelines.
Article in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
In collaboration with the American Academy of Pediatrics, Child Neurology Society, and Society for Critical Care Medicine, the American Academy of Neurology formulated an updated, evidence-informed consensus-based guideline for pediatric and adult brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC) determination. In comparison with the prior guidelines, the revisions and additions in this guideline, which are summarized in this review, are intended to (1) ensure recommendations are conservative, yet practical, and emphasize circumstances in which BD/DNC determination should be delayed or deferred, so as to minimize the risk of a false-positive BD/DNC determination; and (2) provide guidance about aspects of BD/DNC determination that clinicians find challenging and/or controversial. We hope that clinicians throughout the United States will use this information to revise their hospital BD/DNC determination policies to conform to the standardized process for BD/DNC determination described in the new guideline, to ensure that every BD/DNC evaluation is consistent and accurate.
