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

More than half of women with migraine note an association of headache attacks and their menstrual cycles. Headaches associated with menses are often more severe and disabling than headaches that occur other times of the month. First-line therapies include acute agents used for migraine in general; however, for many women, these therapies provide incomplete relief. In these situations, treatment options include short-term perimenstrual prevention employing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, triptans, or hormone-containing preparations. Should these options not suffice, or if menstrual cycles are irregular, continuous prevention using hormonal therapies or standard anti-migraine prophylaxis should be considered.
