Prospective randomized controlled trial on the safety and neuroprotective efficacy of remote administration of hypothermia over spleen during acute ischemic stroke with mechanical thrombectomy: rationale, design, and protocol.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Brain inflammation plays a key role in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and is the main cause of "ineffective or futile recanalization" after successful mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). One of the primary sources of inflammatory cells after AIS are derived from the spleen. As an innovative and potential neuroprotective strategy after stroke, Remote Administration of Hypothermia (RAH) temporarily suppresses immune activities in the spleen, reduces the release of inflammatory cells and cytokines into blood, and thus reversibly diminishes inflammatory injury in the brain. Methods: This single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study (RCT) is proposed for AIS patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO). Subjects will be randomly assigned to either the control or intervention groups in a 1:1 ratio ( Discussion: This study aims to examine the safety and preliminary effectiveness of RAH over the spleen during endovascular therapy in AIS patients. The results of this study are expected to facilitate larger randomized clinical trials and hopefully prove RAH administration confers adjuvant neuroprotective properties in AIS treated with MT.
