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

Migraine is the most frequent cause of headache in patients seeking medical advice. Even ophthalmologists are frequently confronted with this diagnosis. In many cases a diagnosis can be easily established by a targeted patient history. Accompanying symptoms deserve attention, especially the aura which often leads patients directly to the ophthalmologist. Concerning migraine therapy well-established guidelines exist but despite this many patients remain undiagnosed and inadequately treated. Many myths and half-truths are associated with migraine headache. This article aims to give an overview for ophthalmologists.
