New-onset hydrocephalus in an adult with cerebral palsy: A case report and review of the literature.
Review in Journal of pediatric rehabilitation medicine, 2025. 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
Hydrocephalus is a common comorbidity associated with brain injuries, including cerebral palsy (CP). In CP, hydrocephalus typically presents in infancy or early childhood. This report describes a patient in their mid 20 s with mixed dyskinetic-spastic CP with adult-onset hydrocephalus of unknown cause initially presenting with new-onset bilateral lower extremity spasms. Multiple interventions were trialed, including ischial bursal steroid injections, botulinum toxin injections, trigger point injections, multiple oral medications, and physical and massage therapies without benefit. Given lack of treatment response, imaging of the neuraxis was obtained. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain demonstrated new diffuse moderate ventriculomegaly compared to prior MRI. Ophthalmologic evaluation demonstrated papilledema, and opening pressure on lumbar puncture was elevated to 44 mmHg H
