ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2018

20 participants

Abstract

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a signaling molecule, localized in sensory and parasympathetic perivascular nerves fibres. PACAP exists i to functional iso-forms Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP38) and PACAP27.

Conditions: Migraine Without Aura.

Primary outcome: Headache Scores.

Enrollment: 20 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 20 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
