Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purpose of reviewCerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a neurovascular disease caused by a thrombotic occlusion of either a dural sinus or cerebral vein. CVT results in a variety of neurological symptoms with the most common being headache. The purpose of this review is to characterize CVT, describe the headache pattern, and, finally, provide an update to date review of diagnostic and treatment options for this condition. RECENT

findingsCVT is a very difficult disease to diagnose due to the variability in both patient presentation and imaging findings. Recent literature has attempted to standardize its risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment modalities. Additionally, new laboratory studies are being investigated for CVT patients who present with isolated headaches. CVT is a debilitating disease requiring immediate medical or surgical intervention. Because the disease can mask as a multitude of neurological deficits, patients are not properly diagnosed. Headache is the most common patient presentation. The quality of this headache is highly variable with no specific location or pattern. New literature has provided insight into potential diagnostic and treatment options for CVT patients. However, further large-scale cohort studies are necessary to standardize the care for this disease.
