Disrupted functional connectivity in the hippocampal subregions of patients with migraine without aura: a functional study on mechanisms underlying migraine chronification.

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.
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: Despite increasing evidence indicating hippocampal dysfunction in migraineurs, they overlooked the functional differences among hippocampal subregions and mostly used static functional connectivity (sFC). This study aimed to combine sFC and dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) to investigate the role of hippocampal subregional functional changes in migraine chronification. Methods: Resting-state functional MRI scans were performed on 52 patients with episodic migraine (EM), 22 patients with chronic migraine (CM), and 67 healthy controls (HCs). The bilateral rostral hippocampus (rHipp) and caudal hippocampus were selected as regions of interest. Differences in sFC and dFC values between the hippocampal subregions and other brain regions among the three groups were compared through the analysis of the general linear model. Spearman partial correlation analyses were used to assess the relationship between FC and clinical parameters in the migraine cohort. Results: In the sFC analysis, both EMs and CMs showed reduced connectivity between the left rHipp and the left orbital part of medial frontal gyrus as compared with HCs. In the dFC analysis, both the CM and EM groups exhibited increased connectivity between the right rHipp and the right calcarine compared to HCs, and the CM group demonstrated decreased dFC between the aforementioned brain regions relative to the EM group. No significant correlations were found between sFC and dFC values and clinical characteristics in patients with EM and CM. Conclusion: Altered sFC and dFC between the rHipp and the orbital part of medial frontal gyrus and calcarine in CM patients may be associated with dysfunctions in emotion, cognition, and multisensory integration, providing new insights into mechanisms of migraine chronification.
