Treatment of Migraine With Phytocannabinoids, the Involvement of Endocannabinoids in Migraine, and Potential Mechanisms of Action.
Review in Pain research & management, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The American Migraine Foundation estimates that over 39 million Americans and over 1 billion people worldwide suffer from some form of migraine. Treatment of migraine generally falls into two categories: treatment of attacks once they have begun, and prophylactic prevention, including lifestyle changes. The use of phytocannabinoids to reduce both the frequency and severity of migraine is widely documented in scientific, grey, and popular literature. This review provides descriptions of both preclinical and clinical studies involving the treatment of migraines with phytocannabinoids as well as the involvement of endocannabinoids and endocannabinoid-like compounds in migraine pathology, including the receptors and associated mechanisms. Currently unanswered questions and areas for further exploration are discussed.
