Efficacy and safety of eptinezumab for migraine: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Journal of research in medical sciences : the official journal of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
Background: Calcitonin gene-related peptides (CGRP) have been considered a new effective means to prevent and treat migraine. Eptinezumab is a new class of CGRP antagonists that has been ratified for clinical treatment. The purpose of this systematic review was to assess and contrast the therapeutic effect and safety of eptinezumab in the management of migraine in comparison with a placebo. Materials and Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and the US National Institutes of Health Clinical Trials Registry from the earliest date to February 16, 2023, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The mean difference (MD) and risk ratio (RR) were chosen to assess clinical indicators. Results: In total, there were 2, 739 patients in four RCTs, who were ultimately included. Our summarized results showed that eptinezumab had better healing efficacy compared to placebo with respect to monthly migraine days (MD = -1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -2.32, -0.79, Conclusion: Eptinezumab has good healing efficacy and insignificant adverse effects in treating migraine, particularly the dosage of 300 mg.
