Transient hemiplegia in a patient with migraine: A case of sporadic hemiplegic migraine.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2024. 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
Hemiplegic migraine is a rare form of migraine characterized by aura with unilateral paralysis; however, studies on its treatment are limited. A 39-year-old man with migraine headaches and myofascial pain syndrome was referred to our hospital with transient right hemiplegia, after presenting to an outside emergency department with headache and right hemiplegia 2 days prior. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and blood test results revealed no abnormalities. The symptoms resolved spontaneously; he was referred to our hospital. Based on the International Classification of Headache Disorders, Third Edition criteria, he was diagnosed with sporadic hemiplegic migraine. Propranolol was added to his regular regimen as prophylactic treatment, which resulted in reduction in his migraine frequency. Over the next 2 years, no recurrent paralysis occurred. Hemiplegic migraines should be considered in patients with migraine exhibiting transient hemiplegia without obvious intracranial abnormalities. Prophylactic treatment with propranolol could be effective in treatment of hemiplegic migraine.
