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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundThe efficacy of dexketoprofen for migraine attack remains controversial. We conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the influence of dexketoprofen supplementation versus placebo on pain control in migraine attack patients.

methodsWe search PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases through March 2019 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of dexketoprofen supplementation versus placebo on pain control for migraine attack patients. This meta-analysis is performed using the random-effect model.

resultsFive RCTs involving 794 patients are included in the meta-analysis. Overall, compared with control group for migraine attack, dexketoprofen supplementation is associated with substantially increased pain free at 2 hours (RR = 1.90; 95% CI = 1.43-2.53; P < .0001), pain free at 48 hours (RR = 1.63; 95% CI = 1.07-2.49; P = .02), good or excellent treatment (RR = 1.48; 95% CI = 1.24-1.78; P < .0001) and pain relief at 2 hours (RR = 1.80; 95% CI = 1.17-2.77; P = .007), as well as reduced need for rescue drug (RR = 0.64; 95% CI = 0.43-0.94; P = .02), with no significant increase in adverse events (RR = 1.51; 95% CI = 0.87-2.62; P = .14).

conclusionDexketoprofen supplementation benefits to improve pain control at 48 hours and reduce the need for rescue drug in migraine attack patients.
