In one paragraph

Review in Journal of neurology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Various types of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) reflect some of the pathogenetic, clinical, and therapeutic features of the different forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), thereby, providing some, albeit limited, insight into the molecular and cellular basis of the human disease. Specific questions of MS therapy including the search for new therapeutic targets and strategies and their validation require investigations in different available EAE models. A survey is given of experimental therapeutic approaches that are currently under study with the most promising examples of monoclonal antibodies, gene therapy, stem cell transplantation and orally applied small molecular weight disease-modifying drugs. Reasons for therapy failure and adverse side-effects of some experimental trials are discussed. Precaution is advised, if results of new experimental approaches are translated into clinical practice.
