Review in Nature reviews. Neurology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 197 papers, 9 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an important cause of stroke in young adults. Data from large international registries published in the past two decades have greatly improved our knowledge about the epidemiology, clinical manifestations and prognosis of CVT. The presentation of symptoms is highly variable in this disease, and can range from a patient seen at the clinic with a 1-month history of headache, to a comatose patient admitted to the emergency room. Consequently, the diagnosis of CVT is often delayed or overlooked. A variety of therapies for CVT are available, and each should be used in the appropriate setting, preferably guided by data from randomized trials and well-designed cohort studies. Although deaths from CVT have decreased in the past few decades, mortality remains ∼5-10%. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive and contemporary overview of CVT in adults, with emphasis on advancements made in the past decade on the epidemiology and treatment of this multifaceted condition.
