Neuromyelitis Optica: Pathogenesis Overlap with Other Autoimmune Diseases.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewNeuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an auto-immune disease essentially depicted by optic neuritis and transverse myelitis. Per se, NMO was initially believed to be a sub-type of multiple sclerosis with typical demyelinating cerebral lesions and optic nerve inflammation. More recently, corroborating lignes of evidence have strengthened the concept of the spectrum of diseases associated with NMO and more specifically with the role of anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies in the pathogenesis of disease. RECENT
findingsIn this article, we review the recent pathogenic findings in NMO and more interestingly the newly discovered role of anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies as key players in triggering cerebral lesions. The concept of spectrum of diseases associated with NMO is also discussed. These recent findings have paved in the further understanding of the pathogenesis underlying NMO and new treatments are currently being developed targeting anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies.
