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

Sumatriptan/naproxen sodium (Treximet®) is a fixed-dose combination of a serotonin 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist (sumatriptan) and an NSAID (naproxen sodium), approved in the USA for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adolescents and adults. In a randomized, phase 3 trial in adolescents, significantly more sumatriptan/naproxen sodium than placebo recipients were pain-free at 2 h. Similarly, in a pair of randomized phase 3 trials in adults, significantly more sumatriptan/naproxen sodium than placebo recipients had relief from migraine symptoms at 2 h, and the combination was more effective than individual components in terms of sustained (2-24 h) pain-free response rate. Sumatriptan/naproxen sodium was generally well tolerated, with ≤11 % of adolescents and ≤22 % of adults reporting treatment-related adverse events in the key clinical trials. The most common adverse reactions were nasopharyngitis, hot flushes and muscle tightness in adolescents, and dizziness, pain or pressure sensations, nausea, somnolence, dry mouth, dyspepsia and paraesthesia in adults. Based on current data, sumatriptan/naproxen sodium is a useful option for the acute treatment of migraine in adolescents and adults. The fixed-dose combination may reduce pill burden and improve adherence in some patients.
