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

This case report describes a 28-year-old woman presenting with right temporal headache and tremor of the right hand. She had a history of menstrual-related, nonthrobbing headaches but no prior tremors or visual symptoms. Neurological examination revealed a 5-Hz resting and postural tremor in the right upper limb, hyperreflexia, and normal cognitive function, with unremarkable magnetic resonance imaging findings. Blood tests showed euthyroidism and elevated inflammatory and lipid markers. Surface electromyography confirmed the tremor. The patient was diagnosed with tremor associated with primary headache and responded rapidly to clonazepam, with symptom resolution the next day. This case underscores the diagnostic difficulties presented by the atypical co-occurrence of primary headache and tremor. It highlights the importance of considering functional disorders in the differential diagnosis when encountering such presentations, alongside a thorough exclusion of organic causes.
