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

objectiveMigraine is ranked as the seventh leading cause of disability worldwide, and it is characterized by a manifestation of combined neurological, gastrointestinal, and autonomic symptoms linked with different provoking factors. Aim of the study: This study investigates the association between migraine without aura and depression.

methodA total number of 100 patients were enrolled in the study and were divided into two groups: 50 individuals with confirmed migraine without aura (the study group) and 50 individuals with no history of headaches (control group). All individuals were evaluated using the ICHD- II diagnostic criteria for migraine, as well as the Beck test for depression.

resultsStatistical analysis showed a significant relationship between migraine without aura and depression (p=0.023), but no significant association between depression and BMI, migraine length, gender, family history of depression, alcoholism, smoking cigarettes and number of drugs consumed.

conclusionsBased on our data we can confirm an association between depression and migraine without aura.
