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

objectivesTo assess whether the rate of change in synaptic proteins isolated from neuronally enriched extracellular vesicles (NEVs) is associated with brain and retinal atrophy in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).

methodsPeople with MS were followed with serial blood draws, MRI (MRI), and optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans. NEVs were immunocaptured from plasma, and synaptopodin and synaptophysin proteins were measured using ELISA. Subject-specific rates of change in synaptic proteins, as well as brain and retinal atrophy, were determined and correlated.

resultsA total of 50 people with MS were included, 46 of whom had MRI and 45 had OCT serially. The rate of change in NEV synaptopodin was associated with whole brain (rho = 0.31; DISCUSSION: NEV-derived synaptic proteins likely reflect neurodegeneration and may provide additional circulating biomarkers for disease progression in MS.
