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

In this review, we summarize advances in knowledge derived from the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based techniques to patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) published in the Journal of Neurology over the past year. We highlight the pivotal role played by conventional MRI techniques for a correct and early diagnosis of this condition and the exclusion of alternative disorders. Advanced MR methods have contributed to demonstrating how damage to selected brain structures is related to disease clinical manifestations, thus contributing to overcome the well-known "clinical-radiological" paradox of MS, and ameliorating the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the accumulation of irreversible disability. Finally, we discuss the use of MRI to assess treatment efficacy and optimize therapeutic approaches in this condition.
