Clinical Characteristics of Headache in Multiple Sclerosis Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. 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
Primary headaches are known to be associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), but previous studies concerning this relationship are not conclusive. Nowadays, there are no studies assessing the prevalence of headaches in Polish MS patients. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence and characterise headaches in MS patients treated with disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). In a cross-sectional study of 419 consecutive RRMS patients, primary headaches were diagnosed according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD-3) criteria. Primary headaches were observed in 236 (56%) of RRMS patients, with a higher prevalence in women (ratio of 2:1). The most common was migraine 174 (41%) (migraine with aura 80 (45%), migraine without aura 53 (30%), and probable migraine without aura 41 (23%); less frequent was tension-type headache 62 (14%). Female sex was a risk factor for migraines but not for tension-type headaches (
