Rapid changes in cerebrovascular compliance during vasovagal syncope.

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
purposeThe compensatory mechanisms supporting cerebral perfusion throughout head-up tilt (HUT) in patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) remain unclear. We tested the hypothesis that increased cerebrovascular compliance (Ci) and decreased cerebrovascular resistance (CVR) support cerebral blood velocity (CBV) during pre-syncope in VVS.
methodsFinger arterial blood pressure (ABP) and right middle cerebral artery blood velocity (CBV) were recorded in 15 individuals diagnosed with VVS (n = 11 female, mean age: 40 ± 16 years, mean body mass index: 24.9 ± 4.0 kg/m
resultsDiastolic ABP, systolic ABP, mean ABP (72 ± 11 to 51 ± 12 mmHg), and CVR decreased progressively during presyncope (all P ≤ 0.04). As expected, systolic CBV was sustained (all P ≥ 0.29) while diastolic and mean CBV (51 ± 13 to 38 ± 13 mmHg) fell during presyncope (all P ≤ 0.04). Both Ci and Pi increased during presyncope (128 ± 97 and 60 ± 41%, respectively; all P ≤ 0.049) and were positively correlated (R
conclusionsThese data provide evidence that Ci increases during presyncope in patients with VVS and is likely involved in the maintenance of systolic CBV during a fall in diastolic CBV. However, this regulation is not sufficient to preserve CBV in the presence of such extreme and progressive reductions in ABP.
