Episodic Migraine and POTS.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purpose of reviewMigraine is prevalent in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). The purpose of this review is to summarize and interpret studies that examine stress response systems in patients with migraine, focusing on their relevance to the pathologies associated with POTS. Important structural and functional components of the stress response network are also reviewed. RECENT
findingsIn patients with migraine, studies examining the autonomic nervous system have demonstrated interictal sympathetic hypofunction and ictal sympathetic hyperfunction, while those focusing on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis have demonstrated elevated responsivity. There is evidence that activation of these stress response systems during a migraine episode may exacerbate vascular dysfunction and play a role in the development of central sensitization. Activation of the stress response systems during an episode of migraine has the potential to exacerbate the pathology of POTS. Treatment approaches for the patient with comorbid episodic migraine and POTS should consider the etiology of POTS.
