The First Cure Experience of A Clinic: Approach to The Patient to Start Ocrelizumab.

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
introductionOcrelizumab is a newly introduced treatment in multiple sclerosis (MS). There is no data in the pivotal trials about in which extent liver function tests (LFTs) and lymphocyte count are affected before second-half dose of ocrelizumab and in which extent these results will prevent us giving the second-half dose. This study was designed for better understanding of the patient management and to support the data that showed no safety issues about ocrelizumab with real-life data.
methodsThe patients treated with ocrelizumab between May 20 and December 21, 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic and clinical data, side-effects due to ocrelizumab, laboratory results before and after the treatment were recorded.
resultsThere were 30 (58.8%) females and 21 (41.2%) males. The mean age was 44.02±9.62 (24-65) years. Twenty-six (51%) of them were followed up with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), 18 (35.3%) with secondary progressive MS (SPMS) and 7 (13.7%) with primary progressive MS (PPMS). The mean lymphocyte value one day after the first half-dose was lower than the value before the treatment (p<0.001). The mean lymphocyte level one month after the second half-dose was higher than the value one day after the first half-dose (p=0.001), while it was still lower than the value before treatment (p=0.006). No changes were seen in LFTs. Mild infusion-related reactions were observed in 4 patients.
conclusionFrom our data, it is evident that ocrelizumab is safe in the short term. Long-term real-life studies are needed to assess the safety of ocrelizumab in the long term.
