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

Introduction: Emerging evidence suggests that circadian rhythms may influence migraine pathophysiology through interactions between sleep-wake regulation and pain modulation pathways. This study aimed to investigate the association between chronotype and migraine-related disability in patients with migraine. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, 200 patients with migraine and 110 healthy controls were included. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), chronotype was evaluated using the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ), and migraine-related disability was measured using the Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS). Episodic migraine (EM) and chronic migraine (CM) subgroups were also compared. Results: Migraine patients exhibited poorer sleep quality (PSQI: 7.28 vs. 4.37, Discussion: While chronotype does not directly correlate with migraine-related disability, poor sleep quality in migraine patients, particularly those with CM, underscores the need for sleep-focused interventions.
