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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundCerebral venous sinus thrombosis and idiopathic intracerebral hypertension (IIH) can lead to impaired vision, which is why the suspected diagnosis is often initially made by an ophthalmologist. PROBLEM AND

aimsThis study aimed at discovering common features between the two underlying conditions and provide ophthalmologists with concrete measures for differential diagnosis and for the management of affected patients based on these similarities. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis article presents detailed profiles of the underlying conditions and compares the two, focusing on similarities with respect to risk factors.

resultsThe following common risk factor profiles of the two underlying conditions could be determined: (1) women before menopause, (2) administration of female hormones and (3) thrombophilia. DISCUSSION: Based on these findings at least a partial overlap of both pathophysiologies is suspected. In particular, undiagnosed cerebral thrombosis or microthrombosis can cause IIH. This mechanism could explain the typical thrombophilic risk profile of IIH, which is analogous to that of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, including the well-established interaction of estrogens and thrombophilic risk factors.
