Beyond Time Is Brain: The Time, Tissue, and Systems Framework for Acute Stroke.
Article in Journal of central nervous system disease, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Acute ischaemic stroke care has long been guided by the maxim "time is brain," yet outcome variability suggests that clock time alone is insufficient. We propose the Time, Tissue, and Systems (TTS) framework, a quantitative model integrating temporal progression, tissue vulnerability, and health-system performance. Biological injury is conceptualized as accelerated neuronal loss scaled by tissue phenotype and systems friction, and clinical decision-making is reframed as net utility optimization. Illustrative modeling across four archetypal stroke profiles demonstrates how identical clock times yield divergent biological and functional trajectories. The TTS framework provides a coherent structure for precision stroke care, aligning biological time with system time.
