A successful application of information technologies in the treatment of multiple sclerosis: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMultiple sclerosis is a chronic disease of the central nervous system characterized by inflammation, neurodegeneration, and failure of the central nervous system's repair mechanisms. The role of infectious agents against the background of genetic predisposition is currently considered a possible pathogenesis factor of this disease. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 52-year-old white (Russian) female musician with 15-year history of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis who had repeatedly received conventional therapy without much benefit. In 2017, she was admitted to the outpatient department of the Institute of Virology, where she was treated with erythromycin and acyclovir (tablet forms), which were not applied in the traditional way but through the "device for transfer of information from the drug to the human body." The received effect led to suppression of the disease activity, a significant reduction in the symptoms of the disease, prevention of further increase in neurological manifestations of the disease, and improvement in the dynamics of the manifestation of the disease according to brain magnetic resonance imaging.
conclusionThe described case report is innovative and presents for the first time the results of a noninvasive approach to the treatment of a patient with multiple sclerosis in whom information about various medications was introduced into different parts of the body, including the brain. The results obtained may indicate a possible role of infectious agents in the genesis of multiple sclerosis. It indicates a potential impact on them by using a "device for transfer of information from the drug to the human body." The study was conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. It was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Research Institute of Virology of Uzbekistan (no. 12/8-1500, 1/3/2017).
