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

backgroundWe aimed to assess the status of the optic nerve and retina by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in a group of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) on the basis of dynamic changes in intracranial pressure.

methodsThis observational and cross-sectional study included patients affected by idiopathic intracranial hypertension with papilledema (IIHWP) and patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension without papilledema (IIHWOP). All participants underwent an OCT examination of the macula and optic nerve head. Parameters related to intracranial pressure, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) opening pressure (oCSFp), CSF mean pressure (mCSFp), and pulse wave amplitude (PWA), were included in the analysis.

resultsOut of the 22 subjects enlisted for the study, a total of 16 patients suggestive of IIH were finally enrolled. Papilledema was detected in nine subjects (56.2%) and seven patients were affected by IIHWOP (43.7%). The OCT examination showed a higher mean RNFL thickness in IIHWP patients in comparison to IIHWOP in both eyes (

conclusionsClinical parameters suggestive of idiopathic intracranial hypertension are associated with retina and optic nerve OCT parameters. OCT is a useful tool to detect these alterations in a non-invasive fashion.
