Evaluating the optic nerve stiffness and optic nerve sheath diameter in idiopathic intracranial hypertension patients after the resolution of papilledema.

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
purposeThe objective of this study was to investigate the optic nerve's elastic properties and optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) using shear-wave elastography (SWE) in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) compared to healthy individuals.
methodsThe study included 22 IIH patients and 15 healthy subjects. SWEs were performed on the optic nerve and ONSD, and optic nerve stiffness were measured.
resultsThe patients with IIH demonstrated higher stiffness of the optic nerve compared with that of healthy volunteers (P < 0.001). The optic nerve sheath diameter of the optic nerve in the IIH group was significantly larger than that in the control group (P < 0.001). There was no correlation between the disease duration and SWE values in the Spearman correlation test.
conclusionThese findings suggest that ONSD can be used as a follow-up method in the treatment of IIH. However, there was not any correlation between the disease duration and SWE-based stiffness measurement of the optic nerve.
