Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Clinical and subclinical hypothyroidisms are common conditions in the population. Clinic-based studies suggest that hypothyroidism may be an exacerbating factor for some primary headaches. Furthermore, hypothyroidism may be a risk factor for incident new daily persistent headache. This article reviews the classification of the headaches attributed to hypothyroidism according to the second edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders. We also review the prevalence, etiology, and principles of treatment of hypothyroidism. Because hypothyroidism is a treatable cause of secondary headaches, doctors should be aware of this relationship.
