Chronic migraine in the first COVID-19 lockdown: the impact of sleep, remote working, and other life/psychological changes.
Article in Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
aimsThe objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the first Italian COVID-19 lockdown on patients with chronic migraine (CM). MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study was based on an e-mail survey addressed to CM patients of our headache center. The survey evaluated demographic, life style, sleep, psychological, and migraine features during the COVID-19 lockdown period and the month before. The outcomes were migraine impact on daily life and variation in attack frequency, attack duration, migraine pain intensity, migraine symptomatic drugs use per week, and efficacy.
resultsNinety-two patients completed the survey. During the lockdown period, attack frequency was stable in 40,2%, increased in 33,7%, and reduced in 26,1% of patients; attack duration was stable in 55,4%, increased in 23,9%, and reduced in 20,7%. Migraine pain was stable or reduced in 65,2% and increased in 34,8%; number of symptomatic drugs per week was stable in 50%, reduced in 29,3%, and increased in 20,7%; migraine drug efficacy was stable in 73,9%, reduced in 17,4%, and increased in 8,7%. Patients had a HIT-6 score of 64,63 ± 8,81. Significant associations were found with remote working, smoke, education, discontinuation of the therapy performed within headache center, migraine familiarity, sleep, anxiety, perceived stress, concern about future, and COVID-19.
conclusionDuring the lockdown, approximately half of the patients had a clinical stability, a quarter an improvement, and another quarter a worsening. We identified different migraine-influencing elements; in particular, the remote working could represent an easy way to ameliorate migraineurs' life.
