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

objectivesJC virus granule cell neuronopathy is a potentially fatal otherwise highly disabling disease without an approved therapeutic option. This case report presents the positive record to T-cell therapy in JC virus granule cell neuronopathy.

methodsThe patient represented with subacute cerebellar symptoms. Diagnosis of JC virus granule cell neuronopathy was made because of infratentorially accentuated brain volume atrophy shown by brain MRI and the detection of JC virus DNA in the CSF.

resultsSix doses of virus-specific T cells were administered. Within 12 months after therapy initiation, the patient showed clear clinical benefit with improvement of symptoms, and JC viral DNA load significantly declined. DISCUSSION: We present the case report of a positive response to T-cell therapy in JC virus granule cell neuronopathy, leading to an improvement of symptoms.
