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

Considerable progress has been made in treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) over the last several decades. However, the present treatments do not show satisfactory efficacy or safety in a considerable proportion of patients, who experience relapse or disability progression despite receiving treatment and suffer from side effects, which can be severe. Improvements in the understanding of the pathophysiologies of MS and NMOSD have led to numerous therapeutic approaches being proposed and developed. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are receiving increasing attention because of their specificity of action and likelihood of high efficacy with fewer side effects. Many mAbs have been evaluated, and some have been approved for MS or NMOSD treatment. This article reviews the use of mAbs for treating MS and NMOSD, including summarizing their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and safety profiles.
