Article in Journal of Ayurveda and integrative medicine. 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
A 58-year-old non-diabetic, non-hypertensive, non-dyslipidemic, euthyroid lady with a known case of migraine for last 10 years approached our hospital complaining of a severe right-sided throbbing headache in the temple area and behind the right ear for three days. She approached our hospital as she did not get any relief from painkillers. An intensity of 10 was recorded on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and 8 on the Global Assessment of Migraine Severity (GAMS) Scale. The case was diagnosed to be vatika shirashula on ardhavabhedaka, with no pitta-rakta association. She was posted for Agnikarma therapy [AGT]. Immediately, within 2 min of application of AGT on her right temple, her intense pain reduced, and within 5 min she had no pain [zero on VAS scale and one on GAMS scale]. Samyak mamsa dagdha lakshana was achieved. AGT was tolerable and did not produce any major discomforts. No adverse effects were reported. Patient experienced a mild burning sensation over the AGT, and the blackish discoloration due to AGT faded off within 41 days. AGT could be used as a potent, cheap, fast-acting, adverse effect free emergency treatment for acute attacks of migraine headache.
