Review in Biomedicines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07358312 (Traumatic Brain Injury - Efficacy of Steroids in Acute Vasogenic Edema), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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.

Abstract

Cerebral edema is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in any of the tissue compartments of the cerebral parenchyma. It remains a significant challenge in neurotrauma care because it contributes to secondary brain injury, affecting prognosis. This review analyzes the recent literature, including foundational studies, to describe the mechanisms of distinct types of cerebral edema following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Emerging concepts, such as the role of the glymphatic system and heme-derived inflammasomes, offer new insights into new types of edemas, differentiated by pathogenesis and potential treatments. Recent advancements in understanding these molecular mechanisms can improve therapeutic strategies, facilitating a better approach in the era of precision and personalized medicine. Although there has been notable progress, a proposal to customize treatments for diverse types of edemas is necessary to improve outcomes following traumatic brain injury. In this review, we describe the current subtypes of post-traumatic brain edemas and link them to a specific management approach.
