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

The rapid diagnosis of increased intracranial pressure is urgently needed for therapeutic reasons in neurocritically ill children, however this can rarely be achieved without invasive procedures. Point-of-care ultrasound of the optic nerve sheath diameter has been proposed as a non-invasive and reliable means to detect increased intracranial pressure in adults. Accordingly, clinicians may be able to use this technique to initiate early treatment and monitor the effectiveness of treatment in conjunction with other clinical examination and diagnostic modalities. Two meta-analyses and a systematic review have been published on this topic in adults. However, data on the correlation between optic nerve sheath diameter and intracranial pressure in neurocritically ill children are scarce. The aim of this review was to briefly describe what is being measured with point-of-care ultrasound of the optic nerve sheath diameter, summarize the most recent findings from adult literature, and provide an update of current work in children.
