Cerebral Ischemia Protection After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: CSF Nimodipine Levels After Intravenous Versus Oral Nimodipine Administration.
Article in Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
There is accumulating evidence that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of nimodipine correlate with long-term outcome of patients after subarachnoidal hemorrhage (aSAH) by impeding cerebral ischemia. However, pharmacological data on simultaneous serum vs. CSF and intraparenchymal nimodipine values are rarely reported in larger patient groups. Nimodipine concentrations were determined in plasma, CSF, and cerebral interstitial fluid (ISF), at steady state after oral (6 × 60 mg/day) and intravenous (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 mg/h) administrations in 10 patients after aSAH. Area under the concentration time curve (AUC
