Changes in Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Therapy-Resistant Migraine during Treatment with Erenumab in an Ambulatory Care Setting.

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
Migraine preventive treatment with the CGRP-receptor monoclonal antibody Erenumab can positively impact health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and disease-associated disability. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are a valuable additional datapoint to real-world evidence covering how treatment affects physical, mental, and social domains of patients' lives. In this real-world, single-center retrospective observational cohort study, we analyzed clinical performance indicators and PROMs for migraine patients who failed at least four other preventive medications and received Erenumab over the course of one year. Endpoints were the average monthly migraine days as well as PROMs including the MIDAS, EQ-5D-VAS and PROMIS-29. Data were collected digitally via the software heartbeat ONE in an ambulatory care setting as part of the clinical routine. A total of 145 patients treated with Erenumab provided data for 12 months. After 12 months, the median number of monthly migraine days decreased from 9 to 7 days. A clinically relevant reduction in migraine days by ≥30% was reported by 40% of the patients. The migraine-specific MIDAS score, the EQ-5D-VAS measuring the overall health status and all PROMIS domains, except sleep disturbance, changed significantly, reflecting a positive disease progression. This study highlights how patients with a treatment-resistant migraine in an outpatient setting benefit from a preventive treatment with Erenumab. A decrease in migraine days and an increase in HRQoL was maintained over one year. It also underscores the significance of collecting real-world evidence, including PROMs, as an integral component of the healthcare cycle, as such data can reveal additional factors relevant to treatment.
