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

backgroundThere is clinical and radiological overlap among demyelinating diseases. However, their pathophysiological mechanisms are different and carry distinct prognoses and treatment demands.

objectiveTo investigate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of patients with myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein associated disease (MOGAD), antibody against aquaporin-4(AQP-4)-immunoglobulin G-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4-IgG NMOSD), and double-seronegative patients.

methodsA cross-sectional retrospective study was performed to analyze the topography and morphology of central nervous system (CNS) lesions. Two neuroradiologists consensually analyzed the brain, orbit, and spinal cord images.

resultsIn total, 68 patients were enrolled in the study (25 with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD, 28 with MOGAD, and 15 double-seronegative patients). There were differences in clinical presentation among the groups. The MOGAD group had less brain involvement (39.2%) than the NMOSD group (

conclusionThe pooled analysis of lesion topography, morphology, and signal intensity provides critical information to help clinicians form a timely differential diagnosis.
