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

objectivesIn myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein IgG-associated disease (MOGAD) and aquaporin-4 IgG+ neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+NMOSD), the autoantibodies are mainly composed of IgG1, and complement-dependent cytotoxicity is a primary pathomechanism in AQP4+NMOSD. We aimed to evaluate the CSF complement activation in MOGAD.

methodsCSF-C3a, CSF-C4a, CSF-C5a, and CSF-C5b-9 levels during the acute phase before treatment in patients with MOGAD (n = 12), AQP4+NMOSD (n = 11), multiple sclerosis (MS) (n = 5), and noninflammatory neurologic disease (n = 2) were measured.

resultsCSF-C3a and CSF-C5a levels were significantly higher in MOGAD (mean ± SD, 5,629 ± 1,079 pg/mL and 2,930 ± 435.8 pg/mL) and AQP4+NMOSD (6,017 ± 3,937 pg/mL and 2,544 ± 1,231 pg/mL) than in MS (1,507 ± 1,286 pg/mL and 193.8 ± 0.53 pg/mL). CSF-C3a, CSF-C4a, and CSF-C5a did not differ between MOGAD and AQP4+NMOSD while CSF-C5b-9 (membrane attack complex, MAC) levels were significantly lower in MOGAD (17.4 ± 27.9 ng/mL) than in AQP4+NMOSD (62.5 ± 45.1 ng/mL, DISCUSSION: The complement pathway is activated in both MOGAD and AQP4+NMOSD, but MAC formation is lower in MOGAD, particularly in those with mild attacks, than in AQP4+NMOSD. These findings may have pathogenetic and therapeutic implications in MOGAD.
