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

Post-dural puncture headache is an increasingly recognized cause of chronic headache. Outside of clinical history and myelography that requires an additional dural puncture, there is no reliable diagnostic test to evaluate for persistent dural defects. We describe the injection of iodinated contrast into the dorsal epidural space under CT guidance in 5 patients as a potential tool to visualize persistent dural defects.
