Sumatriptan fast-disintegrating/rapid-release tablets.
Article in Drugs, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Sumatriptan is a serotonin 5-HT(1B/1D) receptor agonist that is used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks. A new fast-disintegrating/rapid-release sumatriptan tablet (sumatriptan FDT/RRT) has been developed with the goal of speeding absorption and onset of effect compared with standard sumatriptan tablets. Bioequivalence of sumatriptan FDT/RRT tablets to standard sumatriptan tablets was established in healthy volunteers. Initial data suggest that sumatriptan FDT/RRT tablets may disintegrate faster and get emptied from the stomach faster than standard sumatriptan tablets. In a randomised, double-blind, multicentre, early intervention trial in adults with mild migraine, significantly more sumatriptan FDT/RRT 50 and 100mg recipients than placebo recipients were pain free or migraine free 2 hours after receiving study medication. Compared with placebo, pain relief was significantly greater with sumatriptan FDT/RRT 100mg at 25 and 17 minutes following administration, and with sumatriptan FDT/RRT 50mg at 50 and 30 minutes following administration, in two randomised, double-blind, multicentre trials in adults with moderate to severe migraine. Sumatriptan FDT/RRT tablets were generally well tolerated; the tolerability profile was similar to that reported for standard sumatriptan tablets in other studies.
