The Clinical Use of IgG Food Sensitivity Testing with Migraine Headache Patients: a Literature Review.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purpose of reviewThis literature review describes the relationship between IgG food sensitivities and their relation to migraine headaches. RECENT
findingsIgG food sensitivities have been linked to various symptoms and disorders. While food sensitivities and intolerances are recognized within the clinical medicine community, diagnosing these sensitivities and intolerances can be challenging because symptoms are usually delayed hours to days and may not occur after every exposure to the allergen. Some reports indicate that foods such as chocolate, cheese, cow's milk, eggs, and red wine may be triggers for migraine headaches. The pathophysiology of migraine headaches is not well understood. Some evidence supports the use of IgG food sensitivity testing to determine food sensitivities and intolerances. IgG food sensitivity testing may prove to be a beneficial tool for healthcare practitioners, especially for patients experiencing migraine headache symptoms. Utilizing IgG food sensitivity testing to create customizable dietary recommendations for patients may allow healthcare providers to treat migraine headaches without the use of medications.
