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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesKnowledge of the evolution of CNS demyelinating lesions within attacks could assist diagnosis. We evaluated intra-attack lesion dynamics in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) vs multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4 antibody seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+NMOSD).

methodsThis retrospective observational multicenter study included consecutive patients from Mayo Clinic (USA) and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (UK). Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) MOGAD, MS, or AQP4+NMOSD diagnosis; (2) availability of ≥2 brain MRIs (within 30 days of attack onset); and (3) brain involvement (i.e., ≥1 T2 lesion) on ≥1 brain MRI. The initial and subsequent brain MRIs within a single attack were evaluated for the following: new T2 lesions(s); resolved T2 lesion(s); both; or no change. This was compared between MOGAD, MS, and AQP4+NMOSD attacks. We used the Mann-Whitney

resultsOur cohort included 55 patients with MOGAD (median age, 14 years; interquartile range [IQR] 5-34; female sex, 29 [53%]) for a total of 58 attacks. The comparison groups included 38 patients with MS, and 19 with AQP4+NMOSD. In MOGAD, the initial brain MRI (median of 5 days from onset [IQR 3-9]) was normal in 6/58 (10%) attacks despite cerebral symptoms (i.e., radiologic lag). The commonest reason for repeat MRI was clinical worsening or no improvement (33/56 [59%] attacks with details available). When compared with the first MRI, the second intra-attack MRI (median of 8 days from initial scan [IQR 5-13]) showed the following: new T2 lesion(s) 27/58 (47%); stability 24/58 (41%); resolution of T2 lesion(s) 4/58 (7%); or both new and resolved T2 lesions 3/58 (5%). Findings were similar between children and adults. Steroid treatment was associated with resolution of ≥1 T2 lesion (6/28 [21%] vs 1/30 [3%], DISCUSSION: Radiologic lag is common within MOGAD attacks. Dynamic imaging with frequent appearance and occasional disappearance of lesions within a single attack suggest MOGAD diagnosis over MS and AQP4+NMOSD. These findings have implications for clinical practice, clinical trial attack adjudication, and understanding of MOGAD pathogenesis.
