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

Optic neuritis (ON) causes acute vision loss with typical and atypical profiles, serological markers, imaging findings, and clinical outcomes depending on the associated underlying pathophysiology. Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disease (MOGAD) are the usual causes of acute severe sequential or simultaneous bilateral optic neuritis. These conditions are usually accompanied by multi-level spinal cord demyelination, and notably, they are typically positive for either NMO or Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) autoantibodies, but rarely both. We present a case of isolated sequential bilateral optic neuritis that was seropositive for both NMO and MOG antibodies.
