Attenuation of mitochondrial dysfunction in a ventricular fibrillation swine model of cardiac arrest treated with carbon monoxide.
Article in Resuscitation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundOut-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects over 360,000 adults in the United States each year with a 50-80% mortality. Despite aggressive supportive care and use of targeted temperature management, half of adults do not live to hospital discharge and nearly one-third of survivors have significant neurologic injury. Development of neuroprotective therapeutics is critical to improving outcomes. One promising readily available agent that has shown benefit is carbon monoxide (CO).
methodsWe utilize a swine model of ventricular fibrillation (VF) arrest to assess the therapeutic effect of CO on cellular measures. All animals underwent VF arrest followed by cardiopulmonary resuscitation until achievement of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) or the 20 min mark. One hour following ROSC, animals were randomized to the Cardiac Arrest group (VF alone) versus the CO group (VF treated with CO). Animals in the CO group were administered low dose CO of 200 ppm for two hours. At three hours post-ROSC period, all animals were euthanized for tissue and blood collection for mitochondrial respiration (cortical and hippocampal tissue) and the downstream biomolecular analysis.
resultsThe primary findings were an overall improvement in mitochondrial respiration and ATP concentrations in the brain from animals in the CO group. In addition, we also report the use of cell-free DNA as a biomarker to localize the site of tissue injury and our non-invasive optical monitoring device to assess cerebral metabolism.
conclusionsCO may be a potential therapeutic to attenuate cellular injury in post-arrest.
