Improving pediatric idiopathic intracranial hypertension care: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To describe the clinical course and prognosis of pediatric idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and examine the preferred management setting. IIH is characterized by increased intracranial pressure and is often associated with headaches and visual complaints. IIH is a preventable cause of vision loss in children. Hence, a rapid diagnosis followed by prompt treatment and follow-up is essential. However, standardization of the management of IIH in the pediatric population is not well established. Computerized medical charts of all 82 pediatric (< 18 years) patients diagnosed with IIH between 2007 and 2018 in the metropolitan area of Jerusalem were reviewed. Comparison was made between children followed in a multidisciplinary clinic in tertiary centers and those followed elsewhere. Detailed demographic and clinical data, as well as data regarding the follow-up setting and clinical course of the disease, were collected and analyzed. Recurrent IIH-related hospital returns were selected as a measurable marker for the uncontrolled disease. Recurrent IIH-related hospital return rate was significantly lower and occurred later among children followed by multidisciplinary teams compared to individual experts. Follow-up in multidisciplinary clinics improve the quality of life, and financial burden and may prevent permanent visual impairment in children with IIH.
