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
Purpose: Cerebrovascular autoregulation (CVA) is a homoeostatic regulatory function to maintain constant cerebral blood flow (CBF) despite changes in systemic blood pressure. The CVA-based optimal mean arterial pressure (MAPopt) refers to the MAP level at which the CVA mechanism reaches its lowest degree of pressure passiveness, allowing for optimal autoregulation. This study aimed to determine MAPopt by analyzing existing CVA data from patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Methods: This single-center investigation is a secondary analysis of prospectively recorded CVA data of patients undergoing oncologic prostate surgery. Intraoperative CVA was assessed using the cerebral oxygenation index (COx) derived from the simultaneous measurement of MAP and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO Results: A total of 180 patients were enrolled into the study. The average age was 63 years, 83.9% of patients had no or mild systemic disease. MAPopt determination was feasible in 128 patients, while 52 patients exhibited no U-shaped correlation between MAP and COx. The average intraoperative MAPopt was 81.7 mmHg ranging from 60.2 to 101.4 mmHg. The mean duration of intraoperative CVA measurement was 178 min. Conclusion: This study demonstrates a wide range of individual intraoperative MAPopt values and underscores that CVA-based MAPopt during non-cardiac surgery may differ from commonly accepted intraoperative MAP thresholds in clinical practice (ie 65 mmHg).
