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.
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
purposeTo investigate the rate of development of symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating attacks or recurrent optic neuritis (ON) after the first episode of ON and its risk factors for Korean pediatric patients.
methodsThis multicenter retrospective cohort study included the patients under 18 years of age (n=132) diagnosed with ON without previous or simultaneous CNS demyelinating diseases. We obtained the clinical data including the results of neuro-ophthalmological examinations, magnetic resonance images (MRIs), antibody assays, and laboratory tests. We investigated the chronological course of demyelinating disease with respect to the occurrence of neurological symptoms and/or signs, and calculated the 5-year cumulative probability of CNS demyelinating disease or ON recurrence.
resultsDuring the follow-up period (63.1±46.7 months), 18 patients had experienced other CNS demyelinating attacks, and the 5-year cumulative probability was 14.0±3.6%. Involvement of the extraorbital optic nerve or optic chiasm and asymptomatic lesions on the brain or spinal MRI at initial presentation were significant predictors for CNS demyelinating attack after the first ON. The 5-year cumulative probability of CNS demyelinating attack was 44.4 ± 24.8% in the AQP4-IgG group, 26.2±11.4% in the MOG-IgG group, and 8.7±5.9% in the double-negative group (P=0.416). Thirty-two patients had experienced a recurrence of ON, and the 5-year cumulative probability was 24.6±4.0%. In the AQP4-IgG group, the 5-year cumulative probability was 83.3±15.2%, which was significantly higher than in the other groups (P<0.001).
conclusionsA careful and multidisciplinary approach including brain/spinal imaging and antibody assay can help predict further demyelinating attacks in pediatric ON patients.
