Abdominal migraine reviewed from both central and peripheral aspects.
Review in World journal of experimental medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Despite the 2%-5% prevalence of abdominal migraine (AM) during childhood, the precise mechanism remains unknown. In this review, we present recent studies on AM and speculate its mechanism from both peripheral and central nervous system aspects. Although the main symptoms of AM exist at the peripheral level, previous studies have reported possible dysfunction of central nervous system, including photophobia, phonophobia and abnormal visual evoked responses. Recently, a case has been reported with AM combined with "Alice in Wonderland" syndrome with visual and/or bodily distortions, which serves as another piece of evidence of central dysfunction. Another case reported an AM patient having peculiar stereotypical ecchymosis in the legs and buttocks associated with pain attack, which implied possible involvement of peripheral nervous system. Although further investigations and accumulation of AM cases are still needed, we believe that the schema hypothesized here is helpful to plan further experimental approach to clarify the mechanism of this peculiar disease.
