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

The most prominent pathological features of multiple sclerosis (MS) are demyelination and neurodegeneration. The exact pathogenesis of MS is unknown, but it is generally regarded as a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Increasing evidence, however, suggests that other components of the immune system, particularly B cells and antibodies, contribute to the cumulative CNS damage and worsening disability that characterize the disease course in many patients. We have previously described strongly elevated T cell reactivity to an extracellular domain of the most abundant CNS myelin protein, myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) in people with MS. The current paper addresses the question of whether this region of PLP is also a target of autoantibodies in MS. Here we show that serum levels of isotype-switched anti-PLP
