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

objective and purposeMigraine is related to white matter lesions (WMLs), and attack frequency and duration in migraine patients are thought to increase WMLs. However, the relationship between vestibular migraine (VM) and WMLs remains unclear. This study explored the risk factors for WMLs in VM patients and provided a basis for the prevention of WMLs in VM patients.

methodsA large single-center cross-sectional study of patients with VM was conducted. None of the patients had comorbidities, such as hypertension and diabetes, or adverse lifestyle habits (smoking and drinking). All patients were divided into WML + and WML- groups after assessment of WMLs using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). After collecting the patient's detailed medical history, statistical analysis was performed.

resultsIn univariate analysis, the frequency of vertigo was statistically significant between the WML + and WML- groups. However, there was no significant difference in other clinical features. Multivariate regression analysis found that the frequency of vertigo (OR 2.399; 95% CI 1.014-5.679; p = 0.046) was an independent risk factor for WMLs. High frequency of vertigo episodes showed more pronounced risk factors (OR 9.607; 95% CI 1.061-87.014; p = 0.044).

conclusionThese results substantiate that vertigo frequency is an independent risk factor for WMLs in VM. A high frequency of vertigo episodes is more likely to be associated with WMLs than a low frequency. These results suggest a possible approach to the prevention of WMLs in VM patients.
