Coexistence of papilledema and pseudopapilledema after remission of idiopathic intracranial hypertension by bariatric surgery.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de oftalmologia. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A 37-year-old woman complained of headaches following bilateral visual loss in the past two years. She was obese and had undergone bariatric surgery three months earlier, followed by a considerable weight loss. Neuro-ophthalmic examination revealed a bilateral swollen optic disk. After a computerized analysis of the visual fields and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and orbits, a diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension was made. At six months after the bariatric surgery, the patient reported no further headaches and exhibited better findings on computerized analysis of visual fields. However, fundus examination revealed persistent mild papilledema in both eyes. Ocular B-scan ultrasonography showed bilateral optic disk drusen. This report highlights the coexistence of true papilledema and pseudopapilledema due to optic disk drusen, following remission of idiopathic intracranial hypertension after a bariatric surgery.
