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: There is growing evidence suggesting a bidirectional relationship between fibromyalgia and migraine. The aim of this work was to study the impact of fibromyalgia on the frequency and severity of migraine headache attacks and the psychological burden in patients with comorbid migraine and fibromyalgia. Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study was conducted on 114 patients with comorbid migraine and fibromyalgia and 270 patients with migraine only. All included patients were subjected to a comprehensive assessment of headache through face-to-face interview and assessment of the psychological state using the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-12 (DASS-12). Patients with fibromyalgia were requested to answer the Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR). Results: Patients with comorbid migraine and fibromyalgia had significantly higher monthly migraine days (MMD), headache impact test-6 (HIT-6), and DASS-12 total scores than patients with migraine only ( Conclusion: Fibromyalgia is an aggravating comorbid condition with migraine that is associated with a higher frequency and severity of migraine headache attacks, in addition to increasing the psychological burden.
