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

Paramagnetic rim lesions (PRL) are considered biomarkers of chronic active lesions (CAL) in multiple sclerosis. The chronological relationship between CAL and disease severity in multiple sclerosis is not fully defined. In this cross-sectional, prospective study, we investigate the relationship between PRL and clinical/radiological measures of disease severity at the time of diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, clinically isolated syndrome, or radiologically isolated syndrome. Sixty-four treatment naïve people with newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis, clinically isolated syndrome, or radiologically isolated syndrome were consecutively enrolled. Each subject underwent 7.0 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and neurocognitive assessments. The MRI protocol included whole brain 3-dimensional acquisitions of: (i) magnetisation prepared 2 rapid gradient echoes, T
