Early Detection of Hydrocephalus in Infant Presenting Aqueductal Stenosis after Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy: Two Case Reports.

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
The treatment of infantile hydrocephalus required consideration of age and etiology, as well as close follow-up and care. Cranial ultrasound examination is a noninvasive, operable, and cost-effective tool for assessing brain anatomy and establishing a diagnosis in neonates and infants. Because the success rates of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) for infantile hydrocephalus ranged widely between 40% and 90%, regular cranial ultrasound examinations are necessary after ETV due to the risk of higher failure rate in younger infants. This report presents two newborn cases of hydrocephalus presenting with aqueductal stenosis. Due to early detection of progressive ventricular dilatation, both require additional shunt treatment following failed ETV. These cases highlight the challenges of the diverse etiologies of infantile hydrocephalus and the importance of not ignoring the progression of the disease.
