Correlation Between Trans-Stenotic Blood Flow Velocity Differences and the Cerebral Venous Pressure Gradient in Transverse Sinus Stenosis: A Prospective 4-Dimensional Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.
Article in Neurosurgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
backgroundThe relationship between trans-stenotic blood flow velocity differences and the cerebral venous pressure gradient (CVPG) in transverse sinus (TS) stenosis (TSS) has not been studied.
objectiveTo evaluate the hemodynamic manifestations of TSS and the relationship between trans-stenotic blood flow velocity differences and the CVPG.
methodsThirty-three patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) or pulsatile tinnitus (PT) and TSS who had undergone diagnostic venography using venous manometry were included in the patient group. Thirty-three volunteers with no stenosis and symptoms were included in the control group. All the 2 groups underwent prospective venous sinus 4-dimensional (4D) flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The average velocity (Vavg) difference and maximum velocity (Vmax) difference between downstream and upstream of the TS in 2 groups were measured and compared. Correlations between the CVPG and trans-stenotic Vavg difference/Vmax difference/index of transverse sinus stenosis (ITSS) were assessed in the patient group.
resultsThe differences in Vavg difference and Vmax difference between the patient and control groups showed a statistical significance (P < .001). The Vavg difference and Vmax difference had a strong correlation with CVPG (R = 0.675 and 0.701, respectively, P < .001) in the patient group. Multivariate linear regression using the stepwise method showed that the Vmax difference and ITSS were correlated with the CVPG (R = 0.752 and R2 = 0.537, respectively; P < .001).
conclusionThe trans-stenotic blood flow velocity difference significantly correlates with the CVPG in TSS. As a noninvasive imaging modality, 4D flow MRI may be a suitable screening or complimentary tool to decide which TSS may benefit from invasive venous manometry.
