Migraine: incorrect self-management for a disabling disease.
Article in Neurology international, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Migraine is an economically and socially relevant pathology but patients' consciousness and consequently a proper management is often unsatisfactory. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the disease awareness, the general approach and the impact on working activity in a population of headache-affected hospital workers. During an 18-month period, hospital workers responded to a questionnaire investigating headache presence, characteristics and awareness. Specific attention was paid to define headache impact on working activities. 1774 consecutive subjects were enrolled. Headache was documented in 45.7% of the sample, migraine in 16.6%. 40.6% of the patients with headache and 50.7% of the migraneous subjects had a specialist medical evaluation. Triptans use was significantly lower than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use. 39.5% of migraneous complained of attacks during working time, 60.2% acknowledged a negative influence on work quality. 25.5% of migraneous patients reported a loss of working days attributable to the disease. Migraine is disabling for workers with negative consequences on job capacity and quality. Efforts should be made to improve disease awareness to stimulate a better diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
