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

Chronic migraine is a prevalent and debilitating condition, frequently associated with sleep disorders, particularly insomnia.To evaluate the impact of sleep psychoeducation measures on clinical aspects of chronic migraine patients with sleep quality complaints, under the hypothesis that such interventions would benefit both migraine symptoms and insomnia difficulties.A total of 100 patients from our neurology service's headache outpatient clinic were screened using an author-developed questionnaire addressing sleep quality complaints. The intervention group included 68 patients with sleep disturbance complaints, who completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), and subsequently received psychoeducation guidelines and individualized recommendations. The control group consisted of 32 patients without sleep disorder complaints, from whom clinical data on migraine were collected. After 2 to 3 months, the questionnaires were reapplied to the intervention group, and medical records from both groups were reviewed for comparison.In the control group, there was no statistically significant change in headache frequency or intensity. In the intervention group, a significant reduction was observed in both parameters. Regarding sleep disturbance, the intervention group showed a significant reduction in PSQI (from 13.7 to 11.7) and ISI (from 18.5 to 13.4), but no significant variation in ESS.Sleep psychoeducation, supported by an informative booklet, produced positive outcomes not only in sleep parameters but also in reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches in chronic migraine sufferers.
