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

backgroundEhlers Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a group of 13 heritable connective tissue disorders with various ophthalmic manifestations. Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is the presence of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) without specific neurological disease and deficits along with normal neuroimaging. The relationship between EDS and IIH has not been evaluated. In this report, we present a series of three confirmed cases of EDS with features of IIH. CASE SERIES: Case 1 was a 23 year old female patient with EDS who presented with intractable headaches. Her lumbar puncture (LP) had an elevated opening pressure of 53 cm H

conclusionThis is the largest series of cases linking IIH to EDS. Hyperextensibility may make meninges more pliable and tolerant to raised ICP. There may be a potential association between IIH and EDS, and IIH may be considered as one of the rare manifestations of EDS.
