Pediatric hydrocephalus and imaging evaluation of ventriculomegaly in the emergency setting.
Review in Pediatric radiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hydrocephalus is a frequently encountered neurological disorder of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) physiology or dynamics, resulting in the abnormal enlargement of CSF spaces and often presenting with signs and symptoms of raised intracranial pressure. The etiology of hydrocephalus is numerous, regardless of the model used to understand its pathophysiology. Differentiating ventricular enlargement due to hydrocephalus or parenchymal atrophy can be difficult in pediatric patients, but certain imaging signs could help differentiate the two entities. The management of hydrocephalus aims to restore normal CSF dynamics, alleviate symptoms, and prevent long-term neurological complications with the help of ventricular drains and shunts. In this review, we will cover the updated pathophysiology, key etiologies, characteristic imaging findings of acute hydrocephalus and its complications, thus providing practical guidance for pediatric radiology fellows and radiologists in emergency settings.
