The Impact of COVID-19 on Migraine: The Patients' Perspective.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The COVID-19 pandemic represents a global health phenomenon that will sadly remain part of our history. It had innumerable consequences for society and people's lives. With different mechanisms, COVID-19 has been pointed out as a factor in the pathophysiology of several secondary disorders or the deterioration of pre-existing conditions. Migraine is a frequent disorder that can be influenced by several conditions, including psychologically stressful conditions or infectious diseases. The purpose of the present study is to gain insight into the influence of COVID-19 on the clinical characteristics of patients with migraine. A self-administrable questionnaire has been developed, asking for migraine features before and after COVID-19 infection. One hundred and two patients who had been infected at least once were included. After COVID-19 infection, 54 reported the worsening of migraine, 45 noticed no variation, and 3 reported an improvement. After the infection, 21 patients changed preventive therapy due to the loss of efficacy of the previous one. The most effective treatments in this subpopulation were gene-related peptide monoclonal antibodies. The presented data confirm that the influence of COVID-19 is heterogeneous in patients with migraine, but new treatments may be effective in controlling the symptoms among those who report a worsening of the disease.
