Intracranial dynamics biomarkers at traumatic cerebral vasospasm.
Article in Brain & spine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Patients who suffer severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS) frequently have posttraumatic cerebral ischemia (PCI). The research question: was to study changes in cerebral microcirculatory bed parameters in sTBI patients with CVS and with or without PCI. Material and methods: A total of 136 severe TBI patients were recruited in the study. All patients underwent perfusion computed tomography, intracranial pressure monitoring, and transcranial Doppler. The levels of cerebrovascular resistance (CVR), cerebral arterial compliance (CAC), cerebrovascular time constant (CTC), and critical closing pressure (CCP) were measured using the neuromonitoring complex. Statistical analysis was performed using parametric and nonparametric methods and factor analysis. The patients were dichotomized into PCI-positive (n = 114) and PCI-negative (n = 22) groups. Data are presented as mean values (standard deviations). Results: CVR was significantly increased, whereas CAC, CTC, and CCP were significantly decreased in sTBI patients with CVS and PCI development (p < 0.05). Factor analyses revealed that all studied microcirculatory bed parameters were significantly associated with the development of PCI (p < 0.05). Discussion and conclusion: The changes in all studied microcirculatory bed parameters in TBI patients with CVS were significantly associated with PCI development, which enables us to regard them as the biomarkers of CVS and PCI development. The causes of the described microcirculatory bed parameters changes might include complex (cytotoxic and vasogenic) brain edema development, regional microvascular spasm, and dysfunction of pericytes. A further prospective study is warranted.
