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

MOG-antibody associated disease (MOG-AAD) is a recently recognized demyelinating disorder predominantly affecting children but also occurs in adults, with a relapsing course in approximately 50% of patients. We evaluated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from MOG-AAD patients by flow cytometry and found a strong antigen specific central memory cell (CMC) response with increased Th1 and Th17 cells at the time of a relapse. Transcriptomic analysis of CMCs by three independent sequencing platforms revealed TNFAIP3 as a relapse biomarker, whose expression was down regulated at a relapse compared to remission in MOG-AAD patients. Serum in an additional cohort of patients showed decreased TNFAIP3 levels at relapse compared to remission state in MOG-AAD patients. Our studies suggest that alterations in TNFAIP3 levels are associated with relapses in MOG-AAD patients, which may have clinical utility as a disease course biomarker and therapeutic target.
