Efficacy and Tolerability of Erenumab for Prevention of Episodic Migraine in India.
Article in Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Background: EMPOwER, a 12-week, double-blind (DB), randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluated the efficacy and safety of erenumab in adult patients with episodic migraine (EM) from Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. This study analyzes the Indian experience for the use of erunumab for prevention of episodic migraine. Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of erenumab (70 mg and 140 mg) in EM patients from India. Methods: Randomized patients received monthly subcutaneous injections of placebo and erenumab 70 mg or 140 mg for 3 months. The primary endpoint was a change from the baseline in monthly migraine days (MMDs) at month 3. Other endpoints included achievement of ≥50%, ≥75%, and 100% reduction in MMD; a change in monthly acute migraine-specific medication treatment days; a change in patient-reported outcomes; and safety assessment. Results: Of the 539 patients screened, 351 patients were randomized (erenumab, 70 mg: Conclusion: Both doses of erenumab showed numerical improvement for efficacy endpoints and were well-tolerated in the Indian population. No new safety signals were reported.
