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

Acute medication adherence is essential to manage chronic, episodic disorders, including headache. This paper describes the development of a measure of acute medication self-efficacy for headache (AMSE-H). Phase 1: 14 AMSE-H items were generated through qualitative interviews with 21 patients and 15 clinical headache experts. Phase 2: Researchers selected 7 AMSE-H items by examining item performance in 35 headache patients. Phase 3: Migraine patients (n = 161) completed the AMSE-H, and measures of outcome expectancies, perceived access to medication, headache management self-efficacy (n = 58) and a 1-week AMSE-H re-test (n = 103). Content validity was established through input of multiple stakeholder groups during item generation. PCA identified two components: cross-episode self-efficacy (eigenvalue = 3.4) and Episode-Specific Self-Efficacy (eigenvalue = 1.0). These subscales are internally consistent (.73-.80), have low 1-week test-retest reliability (rs = .52-.66), and demonstrated solid construct and discriminant validity. The AMSE-H is brief, theory-driven, focused, socially valid measure acceptable to both patients and providers.
