Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated encephalitis induced by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections.
Article in Italian journal of pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThis study aims to report the phenomenon of Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated encephalitis induced by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections and promote the potential benefits of combining early immunotherapy and anti-M-pneumoniae therapy for these patients.
methodsThree children with MOG-IgG-associated encephalitis due to M. pneumoniae infections who were treated at our hospital from September to November 2023 were included in the study. We investigated and analyzed the background and clinical features of these patients.
resultsThree patients developed headaches, seizures, and/or other neurological manifestations, elevated mononuclear cells in cerebrospinal fluid, intracranial lesions on cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positive MOG-IgG in serum, within 10-14 days. They were diagnosed with MOG-IgG-associated encephalitis due to M. pneumoniae infections, the treatment consisted of intravenous immunoglobulin, glucocorticoid, and erythromycin, then they were completely recovered.
conclusionMycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) infections can cause oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated encephalitis. The recognition of this condition will promote the potential benefits of combining early immunotherapy and anti-M. pneumoniae therapy for patients with MOG-IgG-associated encephalitis.
