Obesity and Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis: An Unusual Presentation of an Uncommon Stroke.
Article in Cureus, 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
Dural venous sinus thrombosis (DVST) is a subset of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) and is a rare diagnosis, typically observed in women or people with identifiable hypercoagulable risk factors. DVST can present similarly to other medical conditions, requiring neuroimaging for accurate identification and prompt treatment. Obesity, a rapidly growing global health problem with numerous health implications, is not well defined as being associated with DVST in the available medical literature. In this case report, we describe a male patient presenting with headache and vision changes, initially suspicious for idiopathic intracranial hypertension, ultimately diagnosed with DVST whose sole identifiable risk factor was obesity, representing a potential expansion of the current understanding of CVST risk stratification.
