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

backgroundIdiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is increasingly prevalent, yet longitudinal outcome data are scarce. This study aimed to characterise demographic and longitudinal clinical changes in a cohort of patients with IIH.

methodsRetrospective cohort analysis on adult patients diagnosed with IIH (Friedman criteria) enrolled in the neuro-ophthalmology database (NODE) across two tertiary centres. Baseline demographic data was obtained at first assessment, with clinical and paraclinical outcomes collected longitudinally. Multivariable statistical analysis identified factors associated with poorer visual outcomes.

resultsA total of 221 patients were included. 91.8% were female (ratio 11:1). Mean age at presentation was 29.2 ± 8.1 years with mean body mass index (kg/m

conclusionsThis study offers insights into visual outcomes in IIH, emphasising the importance of early recognition, risk stratification, and intervention in those with a more severe clinical phenotype at presentation.
