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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesStudies on tumefactive brain lesions in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-immunoglobulin G (IgG)-associated disease (MOGAD) are lacking. We sought to characterize the frequency clinical, laboratory, and MRI features of these lesions in MOGAD and compare them with those in multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4-IgG-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+NMOSD).

methodsWe retrospectively searched 194 patients with MOGAD and 359 patients with AQP4+NMOSD with clinical/MRI details available from the Mayo Clinic databases and included those with ≥1 tumefactive brain lesion (maximum transverse diameter ≥2 cm) on MRI. Patients with tumefactive MS were identified using the Mayo Clinic medical record linkage system. Binary multivariable stepwise logistic regression identified independent predictors of MOGAD diagnosis; Cox proportional regression models were used to assess the risk of relapsing disease and gait aid in patients with tumefactive MOGAD vs those with nontumefactive MOGAD.

resultsWe included 108 patients with tumefactive demyelination (MOGAD = 43; AQP4+NMOSD = 16; and MS = 49). Tumefactive lesions were more frequent among those with MOGAD (43/194 [22%]) than among those with AQP4+NMOSD (16/359 [5%], DISCUSSION: Tumefactive lesions are frequent in MOGAD but not associated with a worse prognosis. The clinical, MRI, and CSF attributes of tumefactive MOGAD differ from those of tumefactive MS and are more similar to those of tumefactive AQP4+NMOSD with the exception of lesion resolution, which favors MOGAD.
