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

objectiveMigraine is a common headache associated with structural changes in brain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate brain MRI findings in children with migraine. MATERIALS &

methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted at Booali Hospital, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran. Participants with headache and age between 5 and 15 yr were evaluated with MRI and their headache type was diagnosed by the standard criteria. The findings of the MRI were interpreted by a radiologist blinded to the diagnoses.

resultsOverall, 81 individuals with symptom of headache and the mean age of 9.56±3.25 yr were enrolled. Twenty patients with the mean age of 9.65±2.75 yr were diagnosed with migraine without aura. Among the 54 male patients, 8 patients (14.8%) were diagnosed with migraine; and among the 27 female patients, 12 patients (44.4%) were diagnosed with migraine (RR: 1.5, 95%CI: 1.07-2.18,

conclusionThe possibility of occurrence of the high signal white matter lesions in the brain MRI of children with migraine was significantly higher compared with other headache types.
