Registered trials on novel therapies for myasthenia gravis: a cross-sectional study on ClinicalTrials.gov.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.

Abstract
Novel biologics in MG therapy research is on the rise. This research aimed to investigate the characteristics of registered trials on novel therapies for myasthenia gravis on ClinicalTrials.gov. This cross-sectional study used a descriptive approach to assess the features of the included trials on ClinicalTrials.gov. We found 62 registered trials from 2007 to 2023 on ClinicalTrials.gov. The results showed a yearly rise in the number of registered trials (r = 0.76, p < 0.001). Following 2017, more industry-sponsored trials were conducted (91.5% [43] vs. 60% [9], p = 0.009), fewer results were released (10.6% [5] vs. 60% [9], p = 0.001), and more trials entered phase 3 (67.4% [31] vs. 20% [2], p = 0.001). The most researched novel medications were neonatal Fc receptor inhibitors (51.2% [21]), complement inhibitors (39.0% [16]), and B cell depletors (14.6% [6]). According to the website's data, the neonatal Fc receptor inhibitors and complement inhibitors were effective in treating myasthenia gravis patients in three trials (NCT03315130, NCT03669588, and NCT00727194). This study provides valuable insights into the profile of registered trials on novel therapies for myasthenia gravis. More clinical studies are needed in the future to prove the value of its application.
