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

Several international campaigns to increase awareness on the high burden of migraine stimulated population-based studies in the last few years that provided broader data on prevalence, correlates, and impact of migraine. The last version of the Global Burden of Disease 2010 posed migraine with a twofold increase with respect to the previous version as one of the first disabling diseases. Migraine, and in general headache disorders are among the top ten causes of disability because they are common and disabling: that is now clear. It is also clear that the descriptive epidemiology of migraine has reached its maturity. The prevalence rates and sociodemographic correlates have been stable across 50 years. Last but not least, despite international efforts an illness that can be relieved does not, and the heavy burden that it poses at individual and societal levels, persists when it could be mitigated. Describing and accounting the burden of migraine worldwide is not enough anymore, we need to change our paradigm again and move towards new pathways. The opportunity is provided by the biopsychosocial approach that enables to act on the environment once the most adequate medical therapy has been provided. To reduce the burden, international efforts should focus certainly on development of new drugs but mainly on improving health care systems' response to millions of migraine and headache sufferers.
