Elevation of serum neurofilament light-chain levels disclose possible occult progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and immune reconstitution syndrome in a patient receiving ozanimod: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: We report the first case of findings suggestive of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and immune restitution syndrome (PML-IRIS) in a patient with multiple sclerosis receiving ozanimod preceded by an unexpected increase in the serum neurofilament light-chain (sNfL) levels. Case report: A 57-year-old-woman treated with ozanimod for the last 8 years presented, during surveillance MRI, with findings compatible with PML-IRIS. Overt clinical symptoms were absent. sNfL levels increased 4 months earlier and peaked at presentation. Lymphocyte count reached nadir of 330/mL at 8 months earlier. Conclusion: The case illustrates the utility of sNfL levels for PML surveillance in patients receiving immunosuppressors.
