Optic nerve ultrasonography in monitoring treatment efficacy in pediatric idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purposeMeasurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) with ocular ultrasonography (USG) is a noninvasive technique that can be readily used to determine clues of increased intracranial pressure. In this study, we aimed to determine the role of optic nerve sheath diameter measurements in the diagnosis and follow-up of pediatric patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).
methodsEight patients with a diagnosis of IIH with a median age of 11.7 (range 4.5-17) years were examined prospectively. During follow-up, orbital ultrasonography (USG) was performed immediately prior to lumbar puncture (LP) and at 24 h, at 1 week, and between 1 and 18 months after LP. Cranial MRI examinations and automated visual field assessments were performed at baseline and at 3 months, and both measurements were compared with each other.
resultsThe mean cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure (37.75 ± 12.64 cm H
conclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first prospective pilot study performed on pediatric patients with IIH using orbital USG for ONSD measurements. Despite the small sample size, the present study indicated that orbital USG may be used as a promising noninvasive tool to diagnose increased intracranial pressure and for monitoring treatment efficacy in this special patient population.
