Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Associated with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) can cause orthostatic headache. However, it is difficult to differentiate POTS from spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) caused by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. We herein report a 53-year-old woman who presented with SIH associated with POTS. A cervicothoracic and lumbar epidural blood patch rapidly improved not only the headache but also the orthostatic tachycardia, suggesting POTS secondary to SIH. This case suggests that a CSF leak can cause secondary POTS. Therefore, POTS should be considered in patients with orthostatic headaches, even in the presence of a CSF leak.
