Comparative efficacy of different treatments for menstrual migraine: a systematic review and network meta-analysis

ABSTRACT:

Background

Menstrual migraine is a subtype of migraine disease that is typically more disabling, longer-lasting, and more challenging to treat. The purpose of this network meta-analysis (NMA) is to compare the relative efficacy of treatments for menstrual migraine.

Methods

We systematically searched databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane, and included all eligible randomized controlled trials in the study. We conducted the statistical analysis using Stata version 14.0, based on the frequentist framework. We used the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool for randomized trials version 2 (RoB2) to assess the risk of bias of the included studies.

Results

This network meta-analysis included 14 randomized controlled trials with 4601 patients. For short-term prophylaxis
