Traumatic Migration of a Shunt Valve Into the Cyst.
Article in Korean journal of neurotrauma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hardware migration is an unavoidable complication of intracranial shunt surgeries. Traumatic dislodgement of a valve into the skull occurred in a young boy with a cystoperitoneal shunt following a head injury. Shortly before admission, he fell off his wheelchair and hit his head on the floor. Medical treatment was initiated to manage the patient for traumatic intracranial hemorrhage, and he was subsequently discharged home. However, 2 weeks after discharge, computed tomography (CT) showed a migrating valve and associated meningitis. The CT scan showed that the shunt valve was deep in the temporal cyst. The dislodged shunt valve was left in situ because the parents did not want surgical intervention. The author demonstrates how this complication develops and suggests preventive measures through reviews on the migration of the shunt into the cranium.
