When Headache Warns of Homeostatic Threat: the Metabolic Headaches.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Headache attributable to disorders of homeostasis represents a diverse diagnostic category in which external (i.e., high-altitude) or internal (i.e., fasting) demands exceed homeostatic capacity, resulting in symptomatic headaches. Metabolic headaches, especially fasting headache, have been observed to be common in the general population. In many cases, a history of migraine is a risk factor, consistent with the hypothesis of an adaptive, evolutionary role of headache to warn against environmental and physiological threats. Because many exposures may also be interpreted as migraine triggers, some authors have considered certain disorders in this category to more accurately represent primary headache disorders. Nonetheless, these disorders not only represent important clinical entities, recognition of which may prevent medical morbidity, but also interesting exposure-response models to further our understanding regarding headache pathophysiology.
