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

Purpose: To explore ocular changes in patients with MS and NMOSD via SD-OCT and PVEP analysis. Methods: From August 2020 to July 2021, 82 patients (164 eyes) diagnosed with MS, 59 patients (118 eyes) diagnosed with NMOSD and 50 healthy controls (100 eyes) were retrospectively selected. SD-OCT and PVEP were performed to compare retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness around the optic disc, ganglion cell inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness in the macula and P100 latency and amplitude between the disease groups and the control group. Results: In the NMOSD and MS groups, the thickness of the GCIPL quadrants in eyes with optic neuritis was thinner than that in eyes without optic neuritis, and the amplitude of the P100 wave decreased. In addition, in eyes with optic neuritis, patients with NMOSD have thinner RNFL thicknesses in the temporal and superior quadrants than patients with MS, and the thickness of the GCIPL is thinner in each region. In eyes without optic neuritis, patients with MS have thinner nasal RNFL than do those with NMOSD. Conclusion: SD-OCT and VEP may be useful for monitoring and distinguishing pathological changes in MS and NMOSD patients.
