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
The use of Onabotulinumtoxin A as treatment for different neurological conditions is more common in the last decades; its application has been consolidated on the basis of significant clinical results. The clinical experiences with Onabotulinumtoxin A for chronic migraine are on the increase in Italy: at the moment, clinical results are encouraging and enforce the application of the toxin for chronic migraine, according to the results of the PREEMPT studies. The possibility for the patients to be treated with a second cycle of therapy after the first year of treatment is under discussion, in particular for patients who obtained significant clinical benefit from the first period of treatment. In this report, a group of patients treated with Onabotulinumtoxin A for 1 year, according to the PREEMPT protocol, has been retreated for one more year in order to confirm the clinical benefit obtained after the first year of treatment.
