Recurrent HyperCKemia with Immunological Involvement of the Endomysial Capillaries in Neuromyelitis Optica.

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
A 55-year-old woman with neuromyelitis optica (NMO) had recurrent myalgias with hyperCKemia. A muscle biopsy suggested nonspecific myopathic changes. Regarding immunohistochemistry, the expression of both major histocompatibility complex class I and myxovirus resistance protein A was observed in the endomysial capillaries, suggesting immunological involvement of these capillaries, whereas both C5b9 (membrane attack complex) and aquaporin 4 immunofluorescence stainings were normal. The present findings led us to conclude that one possible mechanism for hyperCKemia in NMO underlying the immunological involvement of the endomysial capillaries was an as-yet-unidentified factor that triggered damage to the integrity of the sarcolemma and thereby cause CK leakage into the serum.
