Overview of the utility of noncontrast CT brain in the diagnosis of cerebral vein thrombosis.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) accounts for approximately 1% of all stroke presentations and due to variable clinical presentation, it can present a diagnostic difficulty. The purpose of this review is to re-iterate the usefulness of noncontrast CT brain (CTB) in detecting CVT. In this pictorial essay, we highlight our experience in multiple cases where unenhanced CTB demonstrated imaging features of CVT allowing early diagnosis and ensuing prompt management of CVT. This reduces reliance on additional imaging modalities which may prove beneficial in departments where modalities such as magnetic resonance venogram which is considered gold standard imaging for CVT, are not readily available. This in turn may prove crucial in provision of earlier diagnosis and more favorable prognostic outcomes.
