Regional cerebral pulsatile hemodynamics during isocapnic and poikilocapnic hyperthermia in young men.
Article in Physiological reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hyperthermia is known to induce hypocapnia-driven reductions in cerebral blood flow; however, it is unknown if it causes changes in hemodynamic pulsatility that negatively influence cerebrovascular function. This retrospective analysis aimed to assess cerebrovascular hemodynamic pulsatile buffering (damping factor; DFi) during poikilocapnic (HT) and isocapnic (HT-C) hyperthermia. We hypothesized that HT would reduce cerebral DFi, while HT-C would attenuate the reduction in DFi by limiting increases in resistance. Ten healthy males were passively heated +2°C from normothermia (BL). Blood flow through the internal carotid artery (ICA) and vertebral artery (VA) was measured using vascular ultrasound. Blood velocity through the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) was measured using transcranial ultrasound. DFi was calculated as the ratio of proximal to distal pulsatility index (PI): Anterior cerebral DFi = PI
