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

backgroundRetinal atrophy in multiple sclerosis (MS) as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) correlates with demyelinating lesions and brain atrophy, but its relationship with cortical lesions (CLs) and meningeal inflammation is not well known.

objectivesTo evaluate the relationship of retinal layer atrophy with leptomeningeal enhancement (LME) and CLs in MS as visualized on 7 Tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

methodsForty participants with MS underwent 7T MRI of the brain and OCT. Partial correlation and mixed-effects regression evaluated relationships between MRI and OCT findings.

resultsAll participants had CLs and 32 (80%) participants had LME on post-contrast MRI. Ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness correlated with total CL volume (

conclusionThis study associates MRI findings of LME and cortical pathology with thinning of retinal layers as measured by OCT, suggesting a common link between meningeal inflammation, CLs, and retinal atrophy in MS.
