Migraine Attacks and Relevant Trigger Factors in Undergraduate Nursing Students in Hong Kong: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objective: This study aimed to examine the prevalence and features of migraine and explore the possible migraine triggers in a sample of university nursing students in Hong Kong. Methods: A cross-sectional study using self-administered questionnaires was conducted in the Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2016. The questionnaire included ID Migraine™ for migraine screening and items measuring the frequency, duration, severity, associated symptoms, and trigger factors of migraine. Years 2-5 undergraduate nursing students from the university completed the questionnaires. Binary logistic regression was conducted to examine the migraine-associated factors. Results: A total of 702 nursing students, including 168 males and 534 females, were successfully screened. Their mean age was 20.8 ± 1.4 years. The overall prevalence of migraine reached 11.8%. Over half (67.5%) of the students with migraine experienced attacks at least once per month. Each attack had a median duration of 3 h (interquartile range: 1-4 h) and the mean pain intensity score of 6.4 ± 1.6. Students with a family history of migraine (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 1.89; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.10, 3.25; p < 0.05) and poor general health status (Adjusted OR: 3.41, 95% CI: 1.05, 11.09; p < 0.05) were more likely to suffer from migraine than those without. The three most common migraine triggers were the lack of sleep (94.0%), change in sleep schedule (83.1%), and noise (81.9%). Female students were more likely to experience fatigue-triggered migraine than male students (85.9% vs 63.2%, p < 0.05). Conclusion: Migraine prevalence was relatively high among undergraduate nursing students in Hong Kong. Sleep problem was the most frequent trigger factor. The students' awareness of migraine attacks should be increased, and migraine management must be improved by avoiding common trigger factors in this population.
