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

backgroundOver the recent decades, continuous multi-modal monitoring of cerebral physiology has gained increasing interest for its potential to help minimize secondary brain injury following moderate-to-severe acute traumatic neural injury (also termed traumatic brain injury; TBI). Despite this heightened interest, there has yet to be a comprehensive evaluation of the effects of derangements in multimodal cerebral physiology on global cerebral physiologic insult burden. In this study, we offer a multi-center descriptive analysis of the associations between deranged cerebral physiology and cerebral physiologic insult burden.

methodsUsing data from the Canadian High-Resolution TBI (CAHR-TBI) Research Collaborative, a total of 369 complete patient datasets were acquired for the purposes of this study. For various cerebral physiologic metrics, patients were trichotomized into low, intermediate, and high cohorts based on mean values. Jonckheere-Terpstra testing was then used to assess for directional relationships between these cerebral physiologic metrics and various measures of cerebral physiologic insult burden. Contour plots were then created to illustrate the impact of preserved vs impaired cerebrovascular reactivity on these relationships.

resultsIt was found that elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) was associated with more time spent with cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) < 60 mmHg and more time with impaired cerebrovascular reactivity. Low CPP was associated with more time spent with ICP > 20 or 22 mmHg and more time spent with impaired cerebrovascular reactivity. Elevated cerebrovascular reactivity indices were associated with more time spent with CPP < 60 mmHg as well as ICP > 20 or 22 mmHg. Low brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO

conclusionsMean ICP, CPP and, cerebrovascular reactivity values demonstrate statistically significant associations with global cerebral physiologic insult burden; however, it is uncertain whether measures of oxygen delivery provide any significant insight into such insult burden.
