The Anatomic Variability of the Lateral Ventricles of the Human Brain Depending on Age and Sex.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The evaluation of the different parameters of the brain ventricles is used in the diagnostics of age-related degenerative diseases of the central nervous system, as well as psychiatric disorders. The purpose of this study was to obtain data about the normal morphologic parameters of the lateral ventricles of the human brain and their relations with age and sex to establish a solid background for the diagnostics of any pathologic changes. Computed tomography (CT) studies of 108 healthy individuals aged from 17 to 86 (mean age: 46.87 ± 17.31) were selected for the study. The width of the different portions of the lateral ventricles was measured, and its relations with age and gender were assessed. The study has demonstrated a statistically significant dependence of the width of the different portions of the lateral ventricles on age. There was no statistically significant difference in this parameter identified between male and female groups. The width of the different portions of the lateral ventricles of the brain increases with age. Parameters are similar in males and females.
