Application of the ADEM definition to cerebral attacks of MOG antibody-associated disease.
Article in Multiple sclerosis (Houndmills, Basingstoke, England), 2025. 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
backgroundAcute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a demyelinating syndrome observed in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) but there are limited data on application of this definition to its cerebral attacks or in adults with this disease.
methodsWe analyzed patients from the Mayo Clinic MOGAD cohort (
resultsWe identified 89 patients (children, 34; adults, 55) and 55/89 (62%) were of female sex. Acute magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities included: poorly demarcated T2 lesions (white matter, 85 (96%); deep gray matter, 41 (46%); T1-hypointense lesions (42 (47%)). Forty-two patients did not fulfill the ADEM definition due to: monofocal syndrome, 9; or no encephalopathy, 33. The remaining 47 patients (53%: children, 27/34 (79%); adults, 20/55 (36%)) fulfilled the ADEM definition, and 14 had preceding attacks, and 34 had subsequent attacks relative to ADEM episode. The features in children and adults with ADEM were broadly comparable.
conclusionApplying the ADEM definition to MOGAD cerebral attacks highlighted that an update of the 2013 ADEM definition would be beneficial and could explicitly state its application to both adults and children and allow it to be applied to attacks at any time during the disease course.
