Figure 1 Summary plot for all-cause mortality according to longest follow-up duration. The relative size of the data markers indicates the weight of the sample size from each study. CI = confidence interval; HACA = Hypothermia After Cardiac Arrest Study Group; RR = risk ratio; TTM = targeted temperature management (32-34°C).
