Targeted Temperature Management for Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Literature Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Despite significant advances in medical imaging, thrombolytic therapy, and mechanical thrombectomy, acute ischemic strokes (AIS) remain a major cause of mortality and morbidity globally. Targeted temperature management (TTM) has emerged as a potential therapeutic intervention, aiming to mitigate neuronal damage and improve outcomes. This literature review examines the efficacy and challenges of TTM in the context of an AIS. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Studies were selected based on relevance and quality. We identified key factors influencing the effectiveness of TTM such as its timing, depth and duration, and method of application. The review also highlighted challenges associated with TTM, including increased pneumonia rates. The target temperature range was typically between 32 and 36 °C, with the duration of cooling from 24 to 72 h. Early initiation of TTM was associated with better outcomes, with optimal results observed when TTM was started within the first 6 h post-stroke. Emerging evidence indicates that TTM shows considerable potential as an adjunctive treatment for AIS when implemented promptly and with precision, thereby potentially mitigating neuronal damage and enhancing overall patient outcomes. However, its application is complex and requires the careful consideration of various factors.
