New advancements in the management of Neuromyelitis Optica spectrum disease: literature review.
Review in Frontiers in ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Neuromyelitis Optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) where aquaporin-4 water channels are the antigenic target of the disease. The spectrum of the disease involves regions of the CNS where the water channel is widely expressed including the spinal cord, the optic nerve, dorsal medulla, brainstem, and thalamus/hypothalamus. Management of NMOSD includes acute as well as long term treatment. Acute symptoms are typically treated with intravenous corticosteroids and/or plasma exchange while long-term treatment involves the use of immunosuppression/immune modulation. The year 2019 is thought to be the "year of the NMOSD" as three new medications became available for this devastating disease. In this review, FDA approved NMOSD medications are discussed.
