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

Schilder's disease is a rare form of multiple sclerosis. It concerns mostly teenagers and young adults. The Clinical signs and symptoms might be atypical for early multiple sclerosis which often mimics intracranial neoplasm or abscess. Their coursemay be either progressive or relapsing and remitting, with a high sensitivity to steroids. The knowledge of this rare form ofmultiple sclerosis may help radiologists in assessing a precise diagnosis. We report the case of a young 22-year-old patientadmitted to the emergency room with an array of headache, vomiting and frontal syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging shows2 bilateral demyelinating frontal areas. The patient was put under corticosteroids bolus with discreet improvement in her clinicalcondition. After 6 months of follow-up, we did not notice any real clinical improvement. Although Schilder's disease isconsidered to be a variant of Multiple Sclerosis, its clinical and imaging features behaves more like a demyelinating conditionwith its monophasic course with, however, serious clinical consequences if the treatment is delayed.
