Ambulatory blood pressure abnormalities in children with migraine.

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
backgroundAlthough there are data showing that the frequency of hypertension increases in adults with migraine, there has been no study on this subject in children. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the presence of hypertension in children with migraine by performing ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM).
methodsThirty-seven children diagnosed with migraine and 30 healthy controls were evaluated between January 2015 and March 2016. Demographic data, clinical and laboratory features, and physical examination findings were recorded for both groups. Office blood pressure was measured for all children, and each also underwent ABPM. The two groups were compared in terms of ambulatory blood pressure parameters.
resultsThe mean age was 13.3 and 13.1 years and the proportion of females was 73% and 60% in the migraine and control groups, respectively. Although the frequency of hypertension was not higher, abnormal ABPM patterns were found to be significantly more frequent in the migraine group (migraine, 45.9%; control, 16.7%; p, 0.018). Nighttime mean arterial blood pressure, nighttime diastolic blood pressure, and non-dipping pattern were higher in children with migraine than those in the control group (p < 0.05).
conclusionsThese results suggest that ambulatory blood pressure abnormalities may be present in almost half of patients with migraine. Therefore, we suggest that ABPM should be performed even if the office blood pressure measurements of children diagnosed with migraine are normal.
