Challenges with Formulating Accurate Prognosis for Patients with Severe Acute Brain Injury.
Review in Neurocritical care, 2025. 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
Prognostication is fundamental to determining the intensity of care offered for many critically ill patients with severe acute brain injury (SABI). Inherent uncertainties linked to predicting outcomes for patients with SABI primarily arise from a lack of complete data regarding the natural disease/injury progression that follows various forms of SABI, stemming from early withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment. This potential bias has led to limitations in using outcome data associated with clinical grading scales and a risk of perpetuating high mortality following SABI, leading to self-fulfilling prophecies. The aims of this article are to (1) review contemporary prognostication practices among clinicians for patients with SABI, (2) discuss inherent challenges in prognosticating outcomes following SABI, (3) summarize statements and guidelines from professional societies regarding SABI prognostication, and (4) identify directions for future research in prognostication after SABI.
