Venous sinus stenting under conscious sedation.
Article in Journal of neurointerventional surgery, 2025. 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
backgroundVenous sinus stenting (VSS) is an increasingly performed procedure for the treatment of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) refractory to medical treatment. VSS is typically performed under general anesthesia.
objectiveTo present our experience of VSS in patients with IIH performed under conscious sedation.
methodsRetrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of all patients with IIH who underwent VSS in a single center between September 2019 and January 2024. The sedation protocol consisted of a remifentanil-based target-controlled infusion. Patients' clinical and radiological data, dosage of anesthesia, procedural characteristics, and outcomes were collected.
resultsTwenty-six patients with IIH underwent venous manometry (VM) and VSS under awake sedation and were included in our study. Patients were predominantly women (24/26) with a median age (IQR) of 33 (13) years. The median (IQR) body mass index was 34 (10) kg/m
conclusionOur study confirms that performing VM and VSS under conscious sedation is safe and feasible. Conscious sedation is a viable alternative to general anesthesia for managing IIH in these patients.
