Episodic Migraine in the Pediatric Population: Behavioral Therapies and other Non-Pharmacological Treatment Options.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to present current evidence on the multifaceted approach required for managing pediatric migraine. This includes identifying migraine triggers, managing acute pain episodes, and implementing preventive strategies. The review focuses on non-pharmacological interventions, such as behavioral and lifestyle modifications. By exploring these aspects, the review seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of effective migraine management in children and adolescents. RECENT
findingsNon-pharmacological treatments like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques, and biofeedback are effective alternatives to medication. Nutraceuticals and dietary considerations, including ketogenic diet, alongside education and regular follow-ups, optimize outcomes. Integrating tools for tracking migraine patterns and training for clinicians, parents, and patients enhances treatment effectiveness. Engaging adolescents and their families through education and active participation is essential for improving their quality of life. This review presents available evidence of non-pharmacological strategies for managing episodic migraine in pediatrics. CBT and lifestyle modification are documented for their effect. Future research is required to create evidence-based, comprehensive treatment plans including these and other non-pharmacological strategies tailored to individual needs.
