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

backgroundMultiple sclerosis (MS) paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs) are markers of chronic active biology and exhibit complex iron and myelin changes that may complicate quantification when using conventional MRI approaches. PURPOSE: To conduct a multiparametric MRI analysis of PRLs. STUDY TYPE: Retrospective/longitudinal. SUBJECTS: Ninety-five progressive MS subjects with at least one persistent PRL who were enrolled in the CONSONANCE trial. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: 3-T/Susceptibility-weighted, T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery. ASSESSMENT: Acute/chronic PRLs and non-PRLs were measured at screening, 24, 48, and 96 weeks using quantitative magnetic susceptibility (QS), R2*, and standardized T1w/T2w ratio (sT1w/T2w). PRL analyses were performed for whole lesion, core, and rim. The correlations between PRL core and rim sT1w/T2w, QS, and R2* were assessed. STATISTICAL TESTS: Linear mixed models. A P-value <0.05 was considered significant.

resultsThere was a significant decrease in sT1w/T2w (-0.24 ± -5.3 × 10 DATA

conclusionMultiparametric assessment of PRLs has the potential to be a valuable tool for assessing complex iron and myelin changes in chronic active PRLs of progressive MS patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 3.
