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

backgroundPatients with status migrainosus often need to be admitted due to the severity of their headaches. Their hospitalization is often prolonged due to poor headache control. Large sample studies looking into the factors associated with prolonged length of stay (pLOS) in status migrainosus are lacking.

methodsWe utilized the Nationwide Inpatient Sample database to identify 4325 patients with primary discharge diagnosis of status migrainosus. Length of inpatient stay (LOS) of more than 6 days (90th percentile of LOS) was defined as pLOS. Patient demographics, hospital characteristics, mood disorders, anxiety disorder, and common medical comorbidities were identified. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with pLOS.

resultsWe found 402 patients with pLOS. Female gender, African American race, mood disorder, obesity, opioid abuse, congestive heart failure, and chronic renal failure were significant independent predictors of pLOS. Median inflation-adjusted cost of hospitalization was USD$3829 (interquartile range: 2419-5809).

conclusionWe were able to identify several factors associated with pLOS in status migrainosus. Most of the factors we found were similar to those known to increase the prevalence and severity of migraine in the general population. Knowledge of these factors may help physicians identify high-risk patients to institute early migraine abortive and prophylactic treatment in order to shorten the length of hospital stay.
