IIH, SIH and headache: Diagnosis and treatment update.
Article in eNeurologicalSci, 2024. 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
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) are two major secondary headache disorders resulting from abnormal intracranial pressure (ICP). This short communication outlines the pathophysiology, diagnostic criteria, and management strategies for IIH and SIH. IIH predominantly affects obese women of childbearing age and presents with daily headaches, visual disturbances, and papilledema. It is characterized by elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure, with diagnosis supported by imaging and lumbar puncture. Treatment includes weight reduction, medications, and surgical interventions in refractory cases. SIH, conversely, is caused by spontaneous spinal CSF leaks and presents with acute orthostatic headaches. Diagnosis is supported by neuroimaging and lumbar puncture, revealing low CSF pressure. Treatment includes supported care, (targeted) epidural blood patch, with surgical repair considered in refractory cases. Advances in imaging and treatment have significantly improved outcomes for both conditions.
