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

The rapidly evolving therapeutic landscape of multiple sclerosis (MS) has contributed to paradigm shifts in our understanding of the biological mechanisms that contribute to CNS injury and in treatment philosophies. Opportunities remain to further improve treatment of relapsing-remitting MS, but two major therapeutic gaps are the limiting of progressive disease mechanisms and the repair of CNS injury. In this Review, we provide an overview of selected emerging therapies that predominantly target processes within the CNS that are thought to be involved in limiting non-relapsing, progressive disease injury or promoting tissue repair. Among these, we consider agents that modulate adaptive and innate CNS-compartmentalized inflammation, which can be mediated by infiltrating immune cells and/or resident CNS cells, including microglia and astrocytes. We also discuss agents that target degenerative disease mechanisms, agents that might confer neuroprotection, and agents that create a more favourable environment for or actively contribute to oligodendrocyte precursor cell differentiation, remyelination and axonal regeneration. We focus on agents that are novel for MS, that are known to or are presumed to penetrate the CNS, and that have already entered early stages of development in MS clinical trials.
