Evaluating the Role of Coenzyme Q10 in Migraine Therapy-A Narrative Review.
Review in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Migraine, with a prevalence of 14-15% in the world population, is one of the diseases that markedly reduce patients' quality of life. Despite extensive therapeutic tools, the search for substances that may have potential therapeutic properties in migraine patients is still ongoing. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), as a natural and potent antioxidant, appears to be a valuable adjunct in treating and preventing many conditions, such as cardiovascular, metabolic, autoimmune, or neurodegenerative diseases. This review aims to evaluate if CoQ10 can be a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of migraine. Based on the studies discussed, CoQ10 may have applications in migraine therapy due to its potent anti-inflammatory and oxidative stress-reducing properties. Furthermore, by improving mitochondrial function, CoQ10 can contribute to the energy supply to brain cells, which is particularly important in migraine. Supplementation with CoQ10 in a wide range of doses has resulted in many therapeutic benefits in subjects, including a decrease in the frequency and duration of migraine attacks, a reduction in nausea, a lower maximum pain during an attack, and fewer days with migraine. Therefore, it seems that CoQ10 may be a relevant therapeutic supplement for the treatment and prevention of migraine.
