Detection of Migrainous Infarction with Formal Visual Field Testing: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical practice and cases in emergency medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionCerebrovascular accidents (CVA) of the posterior circulation are a rare complication of migraine, and present with atypical CVA symptomatology. CASE REPORT: A 49-year-old-male presented with complaint of persistent visual aura and resolved mild cephalgia. His exam corroborated his reported incomplete left inferior quadrantanopia, and was confirmed by immediate formal optometry evaluation. Occipital CVA was confirmed on admission.
conclusionMigrainous strokes of posterior circulation should be considered as a potential diagnosis in any headache patient with persistent visual aura. This case suggests that incorporation of formal visual field testing in the emergent setting can shorten the time required for diagnosis in certain circumstances.
