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

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and multiple sclerosis (MS) occur with a higher incidence in women of childbearing age and may be associated with other clinical entities. Both disease processes alter cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics and may present similarly with headache and visual changes. We report a case of a 33-year-old morbidly obese woman who developed progressive worsening blurry vision and unilateral temporal headache. She was found to have papilledema which prompted workup for intracranial hypertension. Her imaging and CSF findings were suggestive of a demyelinating process such as MS in addition to IIH.
