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

Preventing relapse of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-immunoglobulin G-associated disease (MOGAD) with steroids and immunosuppressants is sometimes difficult. There is no standard treatment for refractory cases. We present the case of a 17-year-old female patient with longitudinally extensive myelitis, asymptomatic bilateral optic neuritis, and positive serum MOG-IgG. While taking steroids and several immunosuppressants during the following 14 months, she suffered from two symptomatic relapses in the cerebrum and spinal cord, and multiple asymptomatic relapses in the cerebrum. The patient was negative for MOG-IgG at the second relapse of myelitis. Subcutaneous ofatumumab has suppressed relapse for 13 months. Ofatumumab can be considered a therapeutic option for refractory MOGAD.
