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

Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is associated with coagulopathy but facilitates aortic arch surgery. Conflicting data suggest moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) may reduce transfusion requirements. We hypothesized MHCA would reduce transfusion requirements.We studied patients undergoing aortic hemiarch surgery for nondissected, aneurysmal disease from July 2014 to May 2023 utilizing a multicenter collaborative. Patients were stratified by DHCA (14.1-20°C) and MHCA (20.1-28°C). Packed red blood cells (pRBC), fresh frozen plasma (FFP), cryoprecipitate, and platelet transfusion requirements were assessed. A negative binomial model accounting for hospital random effect was fitted to identify risk factors for increased transfusion requirements.Of the 451 patients undergoing hemiarch surgery, 373 (83%) had MHCA and 78 (17%) had DHCA. MHCA patients had shorter cardiopulmonary bypass (135 minutes [105, 182] vs. 216 minutes [183, 263],
