1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the risk factors associated with blood-brain barrier(BBB) disruption in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody associated disease(MOGAD). Patients and Methods: We collected clinical data from 95 patients diagnosed with MOGAD at the Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2018 to May 2024. Patients were classified into normal or damaged BBB groups based on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) albumin/serum albumin (QAlb). Binary logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors for BBB disruption in MOGAD patients. Results: Our study revealed that in MOGAD patients with BBB damaged, there is a higher proportion of acute phase high EDSS scores, higher incidence of prodromal symptoms, and a higher rate of viral infections. Myelitis is the main clinical phenotype, with clinical manifestations primarily including limb weakness and bladder/bowel dysfunction. Laboratory tests showed higher levels of CSF protein, immunoglobulin (IgG), 24-hour intrathecal IgG synthesis rate, peripheral blood leukocytes, neutrophil percentage, NLR, anti-thyroglobulin antibodies(TGAbs), and fibrinogen levels, while free triiodothyronine (FT3) and lymphocyte percentage were lower. Multivariate regression analysis indicated that an increased neutrophil percentage is an independent risk factor for BBB damage in MOGAD patients (OR=1.068, 95% CI: 1.018-1.122, P=0.008). Conclusion: Neutrophil percentage is a readily available and widely used indicator reflecting the immune system's state and the body's inflammation level. The change in neutrophil percentage is independently associated with BBB damage in MOGAD patients. This finding helps provide more reference information for personalized treatment decisions and further research into the pathogenesis of MOGAD.
