Carotid Endarterectomy Surgeries: A Multimodality Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring Approach.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Patients with untreated carotid artery stenosis remain at high risk for stroke. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a surgical procedure for the treatment of symptomatic and severe asymptomatic carotid stenosis. A small percentage of patients who do not have good collateral circulation are at high risk of cerebral ischemia during the cross-clamping of the carotid artery. Aspects of CEA, such as cross-clamping and routine shunting, can also carry the risk of perioperative stroke through dislodgement of emboli causing thrombosis, therefore, selective shunting is highly recommended during the CEA procedure. A multimodality approach of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) techniques such as somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) and electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to monitor cerebral perfusion throughout the duration of the surgery and to predict the need for a selective shunt after cross-clamping. Additional use of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in the multimodality approach can aid in visualizing the cerebral blood flow and detecting any microemboli that may also cause a stroke. A multimodality IONM approach has been reported as more sensitive and specific for predicting and minimizing any postoperative neurological deficits.
