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

Migrainous infarction is a complication of migraine that accounts for 0.5-1.5% of all cerebral infarcts, usually seen in the posterior circulation and in young women. In this case report, we report a case of a right-sided middle cerebral artery ischemic stroke in a young male presenting with migraine, photophobia and phonophobia lasting for more than 60 minutes and followed by ipsilateral hemiparesis, which is a very unusual presentation. The provisional diagnosis of ischemic infarction of the right middle cerebral artery was made that was confirmed on radio imaging. A high index of suspicion is always required while dealing with patients with migraine especially in atypical presentations as in this case.
