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

backgroundAnti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody disease (MOGAD) is a type of acquired demyelinating disease that is distinct from multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4 antibody neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4-NMOSD). Leptomeningeal enhancement (LME) has been reported in children and adults with MOGAD, and in adults with MS and AQP4-NMOSD, but less is known about LME in pediatric-onset MS (POMS) and pediatric AQP4-NMOSD. Here we compare the rates of LME in children with MOGAD, POMS, and AQP4-NMOSD.

methodsA retrospective chart review was performed in patients with MOGAD, POMS, and AQP4-NMOSD who presented to our institution. Clinical characteristics, imaging features, and relapsing data were included. Descriptive statistics were used, including chi-square or Fischer exact test, to compare proportions. The Benjamini-Hochberg procedure was used to correct for multiple comparisons.

resultsA total of 42 children were included: 16 with POMS, six with AQP4-NMOSD, and 20 with MOGAD. Brain LME was only observed in the MOGAD group (six of 20 = 30%) when compared with zero (0%) POMS and AQP4-NMOSD (P = 0.012). Relapsing disease occurred in nine of 20 (45%), but LME did not associate with relapse.

conclusionsLME is only observed in pediatric MOGAD and not in POMS or pediatric AQP4-NMOSD. LME did not predict relapses in MOGAD. Further work is needed to determine the clinical significance of LME in pediatric MOGAD.
