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

backgroundChronic migraine (CM) severely affects patients' work and daily life, imposing a significant economic burden. However, the underlying neural mechanisms of migraine chronification remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize temporal neural dynamics patterns of migraine via magnetoencephalography (MEG) combined with dynamic network mode (DyNeMo), providing further neuroimaging evidence for migraine chronification.

methodsThis cross-sectional study recruited patients with episodic migraine (EM), CM, and healthy controls (HC). MEG data were acquired during resting and somatosensory stimulation states. The DyNeMo model was applied to source-reconstructed MEG data to quantify temporal neural dynamics metrics, including mean lifetime, mean interval, switching rate and fractional occupancy. Permutation-based analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with Bonferroni correction and Spearman correlation with false discovery rate (FDR) correction were applied.

resultsSix distinct brain modes were identified: visual network (VN), anterior and posterior default mode networks (aDMN/pDMN), right and left sensorimotor networks (rSMN/lSMN), and auditory network (AN). During resting state, EM showed prolonged mean lifetime and decreased switching rate of the VN vs. HC; CM showed increased switching rate of the VN vs. EM; CM showed prolonged mean lifetime and decreased switching rate of the AN vs. HC. During somatosensory stimulation state, both EM and CM showed prolonged mean lifetime and decreased switching rate of the AN vs. HC. In CM patients, longer duration of disease was correlated with shorter mean lifetime and higher switching rate of the AN during somatosensory stimulation state.

conclusionsThis study identifies distinct alterations in the temporal dynamics of VN and AN in EM and CM. Abnormalities in AN were observed during both resting and somatosensory stimulation states, while disease duration in CM was associated with altered temporal metrics of the AN. These cross-sectional findings support the involvement of altered sensory and cross-modal network processing in migraine and warrant longitudinal validation.
