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

purposeTo measure and validate elevated succinate in brain during circulatory arrest in a piglet model of cardiopulmonary bypass.

methodsUsing data from an archive of 3T

resultsElevation of succinate during circulatory arrest was observed and validated. Fitting bias was evaluated as a function of the line-widths and signal-to-noise ratios of the archived data. Succinate increases were independent of bypass temperature. Succinate elevation was also not observed with antegrade cerebral perfusion.

conclusionAlthough spectrally overlapped and at sub-millimolar levels, elevated brain succinate can be reliably measured by dynamic MR spectroscopy at 3T. Noise dependent bias of the stronger overlapping signals did not impact the succinate measurement. Elevated succinate during circulatory arrest and its recovery after reperfusion was observed. This finding is consistent with earlier reports that correlate elevated succinate with ischemic-reperfusion injury.
