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

The pathophysiology of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) differs in terms of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure and imaging-related characteristics. A 51-year-old man presented with optic nerve papillary edema, visual disturbance, bilateral abducens nerve palsy, and a wide-based gait. Imaging showed characteristic findings of IIH and disproportionately enlarged subarachnoid space hydrocephalus (DESH) - characteristic of iNPH. A CSF examination revealed marked CSF hypertension. IIH with iNPH-like imaging features (DESH) was diagnosed, and ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery was performed. Postoperatively, the visual acuity and visual field improved. This report also describes the distinct and overlapping pathophysiological mechanisms of IIH and iNPH.
