Non-invasive assessment of intracranial pressure through the eyes: current developments, limitations, and future directions.
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Detecting and monitoring elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is crucial in managing various neurologic and neuro-ophthalmic conditions, where early detection is essential to prevent complications such as seizures and stroke. Although traditional methods such as lumbar puncture, intraparenchymal and intraventricular cannulation, and external ventricular drainage are effective, they are invasive and carry risks of infection and brain hemorrhage. This has prompted the development of non-invasive techniques. Given that direct, non-invasive access to the brain is limited, a significant portion of research has focused on utilizing the eyes, which uniquely provide direct access to their internal structure and offer a cost-effective tool for non-invasive ICP assessment. This review explores the existing non-invasive ocular techniques for assessing chronically elevated ICP. Additionally, to provide a comprehensive perspective on the current landscape, invasive techniques are also examined. The discussion extends to the limitations inherent to each technique and the prospective pathways for future advancements in the field.
