1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Orofacial migraine (OFM) and neurovascular orofacial pain (NVOP) are both recognized as migraine-related entities affecting the facial and orofacial regions, according to the International Classification of Orofacial Pain (ICOP). However, the distinction between these two conditions and the question of whether NVOP should be considered a separate entity remain subjects of ongoing debate. The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic characteristics of OFM and NVOP to reassess whether they should continue to be classified as two distinct diagnoses. The cohort comprised 75 patients, 12 males and 63 females, 40 were diagnosed as NVOP and 35 as OFM according to ICOP criteria. Patients were recruited from the tertiary orofacial pain clinic in Hadassah Medical Center between the years 2016 to 2023. NVOP and OFM patients did not differ in age, sex, pain intensity and other pain characteristics. However, OFM patients have significantly more cranial autonomic signs (36.4%) than NVOP patients (10.3%), and also more migraine symptoms such as nausea and photophobia. (68.6%
