Abstract Background Although several retrospective and non-randomized studies support reduction of migraine frequency and severity after patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure, three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in this setting have not met their primary efficacy endpoints. In addition, currently there are is no analysis of the quality of RCTs of percutaneous PFO closure for the treatment of migraine. Purpose The present study aims to determine the reporting quality of RCTs focusing on the PFO closure for the treatment of migraine according to the revised CONsolidated Standards Of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 2010 checklist. Methods Systematic searches of 2 databases (MEDLINE/PubMed and Cochrane library) were conducted. The search strategy identified reports on RCTs involving patients with migraine and PFO who were randomized to transcatheter device closure of PFO or medical treatment in order to investigate the effect of PFO closure for migraine. The primary objective was to establish the mean CONSORT compliance of RCTs of PFO closure for the treatment of migraine and secondary objectives were the calculation of compliance per CONSORT item and effect of CONSORT statement in high-ranked medical journals. Quality of reporting was assessed using a 37-item questionnaire based on the revised CONSORT 2010 checklist. Reporting above 75% of the items was defined as adequate compliance to the CONSORT statement. Results The search identified 3 eligible articles for analysis. The mean compliance was 69.66% ± 4.49%. Among the studies, only 1 RCT (PRIMA Trial) registered a good reporting quality (75% of the CONSORT items), whereas there were no RCTs with a CONSORT compliance less than 50% (Figure 1). Among assessed items, 19 items (51.4%) were reported in all (100%) of the articles. Also, 26 of the 37 items of the checklist (70.3%) were reported in more than half of the studies. The majority of the Results items registered an adequate reporting whereas randomization items were not so sufficiently reported overall (Figure 2). Each one of the RCTs used in the analysis were published in high-ranked medical journals (IF>30). However, none of the studies reported all 37 items achieving 100% CONSORT compliance score. Conclusions Based on the present results, quality of reporting in RCTs focusing on the PFO closure for the treatment of migraine remains suboptimal according to the CONSORT analysis. In this sense, better designed RCTs on the management of migraine by PFO closure are currently needed to guide future clinical practice.Figure 1.Figure 2.
