The influence of carbon dioxide on cerebral metabolism and oxygen consumption: combining multimodal monitoring with dynamic systems modelling.
Article in Biology open, 2024. 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
Hypercapnia increases cerebral blood flow. The effects on cerebral metabolism remain incompletely understood although studies show an oxidation of cytochrome c oxidase, Complex IV of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Systems modelling was combined with previously published non-invasive measurements of cerebral tissue oxygenation, cerebral blood flow, and cytochrome c oxidase redox state to evaluate any metabolic effects of hypercapnia. Cerebral tissue oxygen saturation and cytochrome oxidase redox state were measured with broadband near infrared spectroscopy and cerebral blood flow velocity with transcranial Doppler ultrasound. Data collected during 5-min hypercapnia in awake human volunteers were analysed using a Fick model to determine changes in brain oxygen consumption and a mathematical model of cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism (BrainSignals) to inform on mechanisms. Either a decrease in metabolic substrate supply or an increase in metabolic demand modelled the cytochrome oxidation in hypercapnia. However, only the decrease in substrate supply explained both the enzyme redox state changes and the Fick-calculated drop in brain oxygen consumption. These modelled outputs are consistent with previous reports of CO2 inhibition of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase. Hypercapnia may have physiologically significant effects suppressing oxidative metabolism in humans and perturbing mitochondrial signalling pathways in health and disease.
