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

Background: Several previous studies have suggested that micronutrients with antioxidant properties are protective factors against migraine. Despite being an important dietary antioxidant, the relationship between dietary vitamin E and migraine has not been extensively studied. This study sought to understand the association between dietary vitamin E intake and the incidence of migraine. Methods: Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2004) were used in this cross-sectional analysis. To assess the association between dietary vitamin E intake and migraine, we employed logistic regression, restricted cubic spline regression, and stratified analyses. Results: This study included 10,063 participants who were 20 years old or older, 20.1% (2018/10,063) of whom reported suffering from migraine. Compared with the lowest vitamin E intake T1 (<4.5 mg/day), the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) of dietary vitamin E intake and migraine for T2 (4.5-7.8 mg/day) and T3 (>7.8 mg/day) were 0.85 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.74-0.98, Conclusion: In adults, the association between dietary vitamin E intake and migraine is an L-shaped curve (nonlinear,
