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

Superficial siderosis (SS) of the central nervous system constitutes linear hemosiderin deposits in the leptomeninges and the superficial layers of the cerebrum and the spinal cord. Infratentorial (i) SS is likely due to recurrent or continuous slight bleeding into the subarachnoid space. It is assumed that spinal dural pathologies often resulting in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is the most important etiological group which causes iSS and detailed neuroradiological assessment of the spinal compartment is necessary. Further etiologies are neurosurgical interventions, trauma and arteriovenous malformations. Typical neurological manifestations of this classical type of iSS are slowly progressive sensorineural hearing impairment and cerebellar symptoms, such as ataxia, kinetic tremor, nystagmus and dysarthria. Beside iSS, a different type of SS restricted to the supratentorial compartment can be differentiated, i.e. cortical (c) SS, especially in older people often due to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Clinical presentation of cSS includes transient focal neurological episodes or "amyloid spells". In addition, spontaneous and amyloid beta immunotherapy-associated CAA-related inflammation may cause cSS, which is included in the hemorrhagic subgroup of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA). Because a definitive diagnosis requires a brain biopsy, knowledge of neuroimaging features and clinical findings in CAA-related inflammation is essential. This review provides neuroradiological hallmarks of the two groups of SS and give an overview of neurological symptoms and differential diagnostic considerations.
