Case of extensive cerebrospinal fluid leak postlumbar puncture in a paediatric patient with idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Article in BMJ case 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
Lumbar punctures are frequently used in the diagnostic evaluation of central nervous system diseases such as infections, administration of medications such as chemotherapy and for reduction in intracranial pressure in cases of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak through a dural tear can result in temporary side effects such as headache (postlumbar puncture headache) and backache. Rarely, more severe side effects may occur with neurological deficits if there is an extensive CSF collection or epidural haematoma. However, the majority of these lesions can be managed conservatively.
