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 treating neuroimmunological diseases, neurologists have a number of different drugs to choose from ranging from corticosteroids to IVIg to more specific cell based therapies, the latter most frequently from the world of oncology. In some diseases, therapeutic plasma exchange, a procedure rather than a drug, is used. The most obvious advantage of therapeutic plasma exchange is the usually rapid onset of action presumably due to removal of pathogenic auto-antibodies. In some diseases, a single course of therapeutic plasma exchange is used while in others prolonged treatment with therapeutic plasma exchange is used. This article will review the use of therapeutic plasma exchange in neurology and will draw heavily upon recent consensus statements from the American Society for Apheresis and the American Academy of Neurology and by Cochrane reviews.
