Diagnostic accuracy of venous manometry to predict elevated intracranial pressure.
Article in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Background and purpose: Venous sinus stenting (VSS) is a well-established treatment for idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Diagnostic workup includes lumbar puncture (LP) for intracranial pressure (ICP) measurement and catheter venography with manometry to assess venous sinus stenosis. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of venous manometry in predicting elevated ICP. Materials and methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with venous sinus stenosis who underwent catheter cerebral venography with venous pressure (mmHg) recording and fluoroscopy-guided LP with cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure (CSF-OP, cmH₂O) measurement during the same session. Elevated ICP was defined as CSF-OP ≥20 cmH₂O. Linear regression assessed relationships between venous pressures, trans-stenotic gradient (TSG), and CSF-OP. Sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were performed. Results: 84 female patients (mean age 35.5 years) with ≥50% stenosis of the dominant or codominant lateral venous sinuses were included. TSG demonstrated the strongest correlation with CSF-OP (adjusted R Conclusion: SSS pressure and TSG strongly predict ICP elevation in venous sinus stenosis, with combined thresholds providing the highest diagnostic accuracy.
