The Effects of Acetazolamide on Cerebral Hemodynamics in Adult Patients with an Acute Brain Injury: A Systematic Review.
Review in Brain sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAcetazolamide is a non-competitive inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme expressed in different cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and involved in the regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF). The aim of this review was to understand the effects of acetazolamide on CBF, intracranial pressure (ICP) and brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO
methodsFollowing the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement (PRISMA), we performed a comprehensive, computer-based, literature research on the PubMed platform to identify studies that have reported the effects on CBF, ICP, or PbtO
resultsFrom the initial search, 3430 records were identified and, through data selection, 11 of them were included for the qualitative analysis. No data on the effect of acetazolamide on ICP or PbtO
conclusionsThis systematic review showed that the available studies on the effects of acetazolamide on brain hemodynamics in patients with ABI are scarce. Further research is required to better understand the potential role of this drug in ABI patients.
