Debilitating trigeminal neuralgia secondary to idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterized by raised intracranial pressure with unknown etiology. The most common neurological manifestations are headache and visual loss. Often, other cranial nerve impairments are also found, most commonly in the VI nerve. Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating condition that is most frequently caused by neurovascular pathology, but TN secondary to IIH is a rare and poorly described topic. Possible explanations of TN in these patients include the distortion of the local anatomy at CN entry zones and fluid displacement causing distortion of the Meckel's cave. In the case below we describe the clinical course of an obese female patient with TN-like pain who underwent a ventriculoperitoneal shunt to treat IIH and experienced complete resolution of both conditions.
