Improved Osteoarthritis during Erenumab Treatment for Migraine: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Antibodies blocking the calcitonin gene-related peptide have revolutionized episodic and chronic migraine treatment. However, their applicability to non-cephalic pain conditions, such as osteoarthritis, is yet unknown. Osteoarthritis remains a clinical challenge, associated with high disability and limited treatment options. Like migraine, neuropeptides including calcitonin gene-related peptides are involved in its pathophysiology. We present the first case of a patient: a 73-year-old female with osteoarthritis who received monthly treatment for her chronic migraine with 140 mg subcutaneous erenumab, a monoclonal antibody against the receptor of calcitonin gene-related peptide. Though the migraine was unresponsive, the patient's arthritic symptoms improved drastically during treatment period with erenumab; daily pain decreased from VAS 7 to 2, and walking distance doubled from 1,000 m to 2,000 m. The arthritic symptoms relapsed after discontinuation of erenumab. Erenumab could potentially have beneficial effects on symptoms of osteoarthritis. Future studies investigating these effects are warranted.
