Successful treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis with telitacicept: a Chinese case series and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Despite existing treatments of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), there remains a need for more effective therapies with fewer side effects. Telitacicept, targeting B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), emerges as a potential novel therapy for gMG. Case presentation: In our study, four patients with gMG to standard treatments underwent an 8-week course of telitacicept monotherapy. Post-treatment, all patients exhibited satisfactory improvements. The Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (MGFA-QMG) scores, 15-item Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life (MGQOL-15) scores, and MG-associated Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) scores showed a marked reduction, indicating decreased disease severity and enhanced quality of life. Additionally, immunological assessments revealed a decrease in CD19 Conclusion: Favorable clinical improvement and mild adverse events for gMG in treated with telitacicept were observed. However, larger-scale and longer-term studies are necessary to confirm these results and fully establish the role of telitacicept in the treatment of gMG.
