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

Galcanezumab is used in several regions, including the United States, Europe, and China, as a preventive treatment for migraine. This study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of galcanezumab in healthy Chinese participants. In this phase I single-dose study, 30 healthy adults were assigned to one of the two cohorts (120 or 240 mg) and randomized in a 4:1 ratio to receive a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of galcanezumab or placebo. Overall, 29 (96.7%) participants reported 93 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), with 21 participants reporting 44 TEAEs related to the study treatment. Most study-related TEAEs (95%) were mild in severity. The most commonly reported TEAE was upper respiratory tract infection. The PK data demonstrated that maximum observed drug concentration (C
