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

Objectives: The most common primary headache disorder in children is migraine. Some children with hyperventilation (HV) may exhibit hyperventilation-induced high-amplitude rhythmic slowing (HIHARS) in their electroencephalogram (EEG). The study aims to evaluate the correlation between HIHARS and a child's future migraine onset risk. Materials & Methods: The present study evaluated HIHARS during the HV maneuver in children aged 7 to 12 admitted to the Electroencephalography Monitoring Unit for diverse referral reasons. After six years, the researchers assessed Long-term video-EEG monitoring data for migraine disease according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, Third Edition (ICHD-3). The clinical and neurophysiological data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: The study revealed that among children with HIHARS, migraine was higher (P=0.049) after six years. Additionally, 15 children (68.18%) with HIHARS had a family history of migraine, compared to 12 children (40%) without HIHARS, which was significant (P=0.044). Interestingly, no significant difference was observed between patients with seizures and those without (P=0.1), suggesting that seizures do not act as a confounding factor in this study. Conclusion: This is the first study on the correlation of HIHARS with migraine in children. Patients aged 7 to 12 years old with HIHARS had more susceptibility to migraine headaches. It is suggested that children with HIHARS and a history of migraine in first-degree family members will be more susceptible to developing migraine in life.
