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

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous disease which confers an increased risk of malignant tumour development. Relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. The coexistence of multiple sclerosis and NF1 is rare but has been reported. Here, we describe the case of a 31-year-old man with NF1 and subacute walking problems with proximal pain in the lower limbs who was successfully treated with natalizumab. LEARNING POINTS: The coexistence of multiple sclerosis (MS) and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is very rare but has been described in the literature.Follow-up of patients with NF1 is important as the early detection and management of MS can prevent further disability.Appropriate treatment and physical therapy can improve the patient's activity and social life.
