Retinal optical coherence tomography angiography findings in the new- onset migraine patients: a prospective case-control study.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposethe purpose of this study is to evaluate both macular thickness and vascular density in patients with new- onset migraine using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
methodsThis prospective case-control study included 109 participants divided into two groups: Group (A), which comprised patients with New- onset migraine (n=54) and group (B), which included healthy control group (n= 55). Both groups were evaluated ophthalmologically and imaged by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to evaluate both retinal thickness and vasculature.
resultsBoth groups were well matched regarding age, sex, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), axial length, spherical equivalent (SER) and intraocular pressure (IOP), with no significant difference. The migraine group demonstrated a significant decrease in all vascular parameters in comparison with control group p-value is significant (p < 0.05), Furthermore, when comparing migraine patients with aura to those without aura; patients with aura were significantly more affected.
conclusionPatients with migraine, even at their first diagnosis, exhibit abnormal retinal microvasculature. Furthermore, those with aura demonstrate a higher susceptibility to retinal vascular involvement. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
