Intrathecal IgG and IgM synthesis correlates with neurodegeneration markers and corresponds to meningeal B cell presence in MS.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Intrathecal synthesis of immunoglobulins (Igs) is a key hallmark of multiple sclerosis (MS). B cells are known to accumulate in the leptomeninges of MS patients and associate with pathology in the underlying cortex and a more severe disease course. However, the role of locally produced antibodies in MS brain pathology is poorly understood. Here, we quantified the protein levels of IgA, IgM, IgG and albumin in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples of 80 MS patients and 28 neurological controls to calculate Ig indices. In addition, we quantified presence of meningeal IgA
