Tegmen dehiscence precipitated by barotrauma in idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
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
Attenuation of the tegmen has been associated with increased intracranial pressure (ICP) and increasingly observed in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Over time, the attenuated tegmen may be at increased risk for spontaneous dehiscence and result in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. While spontaneous tegmen dehiscence has been reported in cases of elevated ICP, external etiologies (e.g., barotrauma) as potential precipitating factors remain understudied. We present the first two documented cases of tegmen dehiscence likely precipitated by barotrauma in patients with presumed IIH. Early recognition of barotrauma-induced tegmen rupture can be critical for preventing complications such as recurrent CSF leakage and infection (e.g., meningitis). Further research is needed to assess the progression of skull base attenuation in IIH and its susceptibility to barometric stressors.
