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

Migraine is a common disabling disorder that affects 36 million Americans. The clinical features of migraine are less typical in the people above age 60, making the diagnosis and treatment difficult in this group. In this review, we will discuss migraine-specific drugs and their use in populations about age 60 who suffer from migraine. This discussion will include an overview of traditional treatments for the acute and preventive treatment of migraine, and considerations for their use in patient populations above age 60. In addition, we will discuss newer agents that show a more promising safety profile.
