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

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is the most common complication in patients undergoing a lumbar puncture. A much rarer entity is headaches attributed to spontaneous (or idiopathic) low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure but the combination with a connective tissue disorder is even rarer. The first case of a patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension and genetically established Marfan syndrome was published in 1995. This article describes the cases of two female patients who presented with postural headache. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple leakages of CSF and both patients had a genetically confirmed diagnosis of Marfan syndrome. The initial symptomatic treatment did not result in a significant relief of the headaches. Epidural blood patching was performed and the intervention was successful in both patients. Finally, the most important epidemiological, diagnostic and pathophysiological aspects are demonstrated and the therapeutic procedures are presented.
