1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

background and purposeChoroid plexus (ChP) hyperemia has been observed in patients with intracranial vasculopathy and to reduce following successful surgical revascularization. This observation may be attributable to impaired vascular reserve of the ChP or other factors, such as the ChP responding to circulating markers of stress. We extend this work to test the hypothesis that vascular reserve of the ChP is unrelated to intracranial vasculopathy.

methodsWe performed hypercapnic reactivity (blood oxygenation level-dependent; echo time = 35 ms; spatial resolution = 3.5 × 3.5 × 3.5 mm, repetition time = 2000 ms) and catheter angiography assessments of ChP reserve capacity and vascular patency in moyamoya patients (n = 53) with and without prior surgical revascularization. Time regression analyses quantified maximum cerebrovascular reactivity and reactivity delay time in ChP and cortical flow territories of major intracranial vessels with steno-occlusion graded as <70%, 70%-99%, and occlusion using Warfarin-Aspirin-Symptomatic-Intracranial-Disease stenosis grading criteria. Analysis of variance (significance: two-sided Bonferroni-corrected p < .05) was applied to evaluate cortical and ChP reactivity, after accounting for end-tidal carbon dioxide change, for differing vasculopathy categories.

resultsIn patients without prior revascularization, arterial vasculopathy was associated with reduced cortical reactivity and lengthened reactivity delay (p ≤ .01), as expected. Regardless of surgical history, the ChP reactivity metrics were not significantly related to the degree of proximal stenosis, consistent with ChP reactivity being largely preserved in this population.

conclusionsFindings are consistent with ChP reactivity in moyamoya not being dependent on observed vasculopathy. Future work may investigate the extent to which ChP hyperemia in chronic ischemia reflects circulating markers of glial or ischemic stress.
