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

objectivePain catastrophizing and cutaneous allodynia represent two risk factors for greater headache-related disability. Yet, there is limited knowledge of the extent to which these risk factors are modifiable and whether nonpharmacological treatment-related changes are associated with migraine improvements. Using data from the Women's Health and Migraine (WHAM) study, a randomized controlled trial that compared effects of behavioral weight loss (BWL) and migraine education (ME) in women with migraine and overweight/obesity, we tested whether: (a) BWL versus ME produced greater changes in pain catastrophizing and allodynia from baseline across posttreatment and follow-up time points, and (b) whether these improvements were associated with improvements in headache disability.

methodWomen (

resultsBoth BWL and ME had significant reductions in pain catastrophizing and allodynia from baseline to posttreatment and follow up, and the improvements were comparable across conditions. Reductions in pain catastrophizing and cutaneous allodynia were associated with significant reductions in headache disability, even when controlling for intervention-related improvements in migraine and weight loss.

conclusionPain catastrophizing and allodynia are not only reduced after nonpharmacologic treatments for migraine, but greater improvements are associated with greater reductions in headache-related disability, independent of migraine severity.
