Determination of activated lymphocytes in peripheral blood of patients with multiple sclerosis.
Article in Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry, 1988. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Using monoclonal antibodies Ta1 and CD25 (interleukin-2 receptor: I-2R) and flow cytometry, the levels of activated lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of 50 patients with multiple sclerosis (16 relapsing inactive; 14 relapsing active; 20 chronic progressive) and 20 normal subjects were investigated. No significant differences were observed in the percentage or absolute numbers of Ta1 and IL-2R reactive lymphocytes between the normal and multiple sclerosis patient groups, irrespective of disease activity. Monitoring peripheral blood lymphocytes with respect to these markers would appear to have little value in the management of multiple sclerosis.
