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

backgroundThe pathophysiology of Chiari 1 malformation (CM1) is inextricably related to intracranial pressure (ICP). The characteristic cerebellar tonsil herniation at the foramen magnum may either cause raised ICP by disturbing CSF flow (as observed in idiopathic CM1) or may itself be the effect of raised ICP (as observed in acquired CM1). Distinguishing between these two phenomena, therefore, is of paramount importance in successfully alleviating the symptoms of the condition and preventing serious complications.

objectivesIn this article, we discuss the pathophysiology of raised ICP in CM1 and review the current evidence for its investigation and treatment. We also share our own clinical experience which investigates the utility of ICP monitoring in a series of 26 children with CM1.
