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

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-antibody (Ab)-associated disease (MOGAD) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the CNS. Although MOG is encephalitogenic in different mammalian species, the mechanisms by which human MOG-specific Abs contribute to MOGAD are poorly understood. Here, we use a systems-level approach combined with high-dimensional characterization of Ab-associated immune features to deeply profile humoral immune responses in 123 patients with MOGAD. We show that age is a major determinant for MOG-antibody-related immune signatures. Unsupervised clustering additionally identifies two dominant immunological endophenotypes of MOGAD. The pro-inflammatory endophenotype characterized by increased binding affinities for activating Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), capacity to activate innate immune cells, and decreased frequencies of galactosylated and sialylated immunoglobulin G (IgG) glycovariants is associated with clinically active disease. Our data support the concept that FcγR-mediated effector functions control the pathogenicity of MOG-specific IgG and suggest that FcγR-targeting therapies should be explored for their therapeutic potential in MOGAD.
