New Options (or not) for Treatment of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purpose of reviewIdiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a disorder primarily affecting obese women of childbearing age and, if left untreated, can lead to irreversible vision loss. No consensus exists on the best management strategy for IIH. Weight loss is advocated and few useful medical options exist. There is an unmet need to discover new treatment options for this increasingly prevalent condition. This article reviews the recent advances and research on the treatment of IIH. RECENT
findingsVenous sinus stenting (VSS) is now performed in many experienced centers, and there is growing interest in bariatric surgery as a treatment modality. Newly approved anti-obesity drugs are showing effectiveness in weight loss, and novel targeted disease-modifying IIH therapies are being explored. Further evaluation of these novel therapeutic strategies as well as studies exploring the use of anti-obesity drugs in IIH is needed. While VSS is gaining popularity due to its efficacy and low complication rate, there is insufficient evidence to support any surgical procedure over another. Bariatric surgery is appealing for patients with non-sight-threatening IIH and needs to be further explored.
