Drug Treatment of Clinically Isolated Syndrome.
Review in CNS drugs, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that leads to inflammation, demyelination and ultimately axonal degeneration. In most cases, it is preceded by its precursor, clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) with conversion rates to clinically definite MS (CDMS) of roughly 20-75%. Neurologists are therefore faced with the challenge of initiating a disease-modifying therapy (DMT) as early as possible to favorably influence the course of the disease. During the past 20 years, a multitude of drugs have been incorporated into our therapeutic armamentarium for MS and CIS. Choosing the right drug for an individual patient is complex and should be based not only on the drug's overall efficacy to prevent disease progression but also its specific adverse reaction profile, the severity of individual disease courses and, finally, patient compliance in order to adequately weigh associated risks and benefits. Here, we review the available data on the efficacy, safety and tolerability of DMTs tested for CIS and discuss their value regarding a delay of progression to CDMS.
