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

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. It is believed to be an autoimmune disease arising from a breakdown of immune tolerance in T cells specific for myelin antigens. The heterogeneity in clinical signs and pathology observed in MS patients suggests a complex pathogenesis in which the specificity of the pathogenic T cells and the tolerance mechanisms that are compromised vary among individual patients. In this review, we summarize some of the features of the diverse immune pathology observed in MS and the animal models used to study this disease. We then describe the current state of knowledge regarding the expression of the major myelin protein antigens believed to be targeted in MS and the mechanisms of immune tolerance that operate on T cells that recognize these antigens.
