Protocol on establishing a national disease registry-Swiss Pediatric Inflammatory Brain Disease Registry.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPediatric-onset inflammatory brain diseases are a group of potentially life-threatening central nervous system disorders. Overall, pediatric-onset inflammatory brain diseases are rare and therefore difficult to study. Patient registries are well suited to study the natural history of (rare) diseases and have markedly advanced the knowledge on pediatric-onset inflammatory brain diseases in other countries. Following their example, we established a national pediatric-onset inflammatory brain disease registry in Switzerland (Swiss-Ped-IBrainD).
aimsThe Registry aims to describe epidemiology, demographics, diagnostics, management, and treatment, since these areas remain understudied in Switzerland. Additionally, we want to promote research by fostering the knowledge exchange between study centers and setting up studies such as national quality of life surveys. We further aim to facilitate the access to national and international studies for patients with a pediatric-onset inflammatory brain disease living and/or treated in Switzerland.
methodsThe Swiss-Ped-IBrainD is a multicentric, population-based, observational cohort study (IRB number: 2019-00377) collaborating with 11 neuropediatric centers in Switzerland. Patient screening, information and recruitment is mainly conducted by the local principal investigators. The data collection is organized centrally by the Executive Office of the registry. The collected data is purely observational. Medical records are the primary data source. All patients who have been diagnosed with a pediatric-onset inflammatory brain disease since 2005 are eligible. We aim to include all pediatric-onset inflammatory brain disease patients living and/or treated in Switzerland who meet the inclusion criteria. Considering existing literature and our single-center experience we anticipate 300-400 eligible patients. STATUS: Currently, all 11 neuropediatric centers have been initiated and are recruiting. As of the first of May 2023, we have identified 275 eligible participants and obtained informed consent from 101 patients and/or families. None of the informed patients and/or families have refused participation.
