Beyond infection: Ommaya reservoir-induced vasogenic edema and reversible leukoencephalopathy.
Article in Oxford medical 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
Ommaya reservoirs, commonly used in the management of intrathecal chemotherapy, can sometimes lead to complications, including cerebral edema and porencephaly. We present the case of a 65-year-old woman with a suprasellar craniopharyngioma who developed these rare complications after the placement of an Ommaya reservoir. The initial CT and MRI findings revealed a hypodense area in the right frontal lobe along the Ommaya catheter, consistent with a vasogenic edema. Laboratory work-ups, including inflammatory markers, were normal, and the patient did not exhibit fever. This case highlights the need for clinicians to be aware of this potential complication when managing patients with Ommaya reservoirs.
