Migraine headache and other risk factors associated with glaucoma among the adult population living in Armenia: a case-control study.

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
purposeThis study aimed to assess the association between migraine headache and glaucoma among the adult population living in Armenia.
methodsThis case-control study recruited 145 cases with glaucoma and 250 controls without glaucoma and other ocular disorders except refractive error from Optomed Canada Diagnostic Eye Center in Armenia. A structured questionnaire contained questions on socio-demographics, family history of glaucoma and stroke, ocular health, smoking, migraine, and obstructive sleep apnea. The Migraine Screening Questionnaire assessed possible migraine and the Berlin Questionnaire measured obstructive sleep apnea.
resultsThe mean ages of cases and controls were 63.3 (SD = 12.3) and 39.5 (SD = 13.5), respectively. Females comprised 62.8% of cases and 69.1% of controls. A total of 17.8% of cases and 19.0% of controls had possible migraine. In the adjusted analysis older age (OR 1.17; 95% CI 1.12; 1.23), average/lower than average socio-economic status (OR 5.27; 95% CI 1.30; 21.3), and family history of glaucoma (OR 4.25; 95% CI 1.51; 11.9) were associated with high-tension glaucoma.
conclusionTimely case detection of glaucoma among those with average/low socio-economic status and those with family history of glaucoma could prevent further progression of the disease. Further studies to explore the relationship between migraine headache and specific types of glaucoma may be worthwhile.
