B-Cell Targeted Treatments for Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: A Focus on CD19 and CD20.
Review in ImmunoTargets and therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that preferentially targets the optic nerves and spinal cord, leading to visual loss and impaired mobility. Until 2019, no medications were FDA-approved for NMOSD treatment, and standard of care was based on mostly empiric and retrospective data. Therapies that target B cells emerged as a treatment strategy due to their fundamental role in disease pathogenesis. We explore different monoclonal antibodies directed at either CD20+ or CD19+ B cells that may have utilization in the treatment of NMOSD, discussing what is known regarding their efficacy and safety.
