[Headache and hypertension. Myth and evidence].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2010. 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
The relationship between headache and hypertension has been debated for many years. Although most studies have shown that chronic hypertension and headache are not associated, the myth of a hypertensive headache still exists. There are several reasons why the "hypertension headache" misperception persists: Hypertension is an epiphenomenon of pain. Headache is a common side effect of some antihypertensive drugs. Headache is the most common presenting symptom of hypertensive encephalopathy, followed by seizures, focal neurological deficits and loss of consciousness. This review summarizes the existing literature and highlights the relationship between headache, hypertension and disease with a focus on hypertensive encephalopathy and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome with acute endothelial damage.
