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

Benign intracranial hypertension (BIH) in children is recognized as elevated intracranial pressure without hydrocephalus or intracranial mass. It manifests differently in adults, with no apparent predilection for sex or weight. Headache, papilledema, and possibly sixth nerve palsy with visual field defects are the typical symptoms of this syndrome. Vitamin A toxicity is a rare cause of BIH. We report the case of a previously healthy 13-year-old girl presenting with photophobia, a frontal headache, and vomiting. She had bilateral papilledema discovered by fundoscopy. Both magnetic resonance imaging and brain CT were normal. At admission, a lumbar puncture (LP) revealed an opening pressure of 26 cm H
