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

purpose of reviewIntractable migraine in children and adolescents is a significant cause of disability and decreased quality of life (QoL) in this population. Challenges include lack of unifying definition for intractable migraine, and limited data on best-practice management in this age group, with most current treatment pathways extrapolated from adult studies or expert consensus. RECENT

findingsA comprehensive approach in the evaluation and management of intractable migraine in this age group encompasses excluding secondary causes of headache; making an accurate diagnosis; identifying and appropriately managing modifiable risk factors; and initiating appropriate pharmacologic therapy to reduce disability, improve health-related quality of life, reduce risk of progression, and develop adaptive pain coping strategies. Several strategies for management of pediatric intractable migraine including use of acute medications, bridge therapy in outpatient setting, emerging therapies for preventive therapy, and a stepwise combination therapy for management of pediatric intractable migraine in emergency and inpatient setting are presented based on available clinical data, safety/tolerability, availability, cost-effectiveness, and expert consensus. This descriptive review of the available literature focuses on approach to therapy for acute intractable migraine in a pediatric population including outpatient, emergency department (ED), and inpatient management.
