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

backgroundRecent studies suggest that disruptions of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier within the choroid plexus (ChP) may contribute to multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis. We investigated the relationship between a quantitative marker of ChP enhancement and markers of focal and diffuse brain tissue injury in MS.

methodsA group of 34 MS participants and 21 healthy participants underwent 7T MRI including magnetization prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient echoes (MP2RAGE) and fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) acquisitions. The MS group received contrast, and delta T1 (ΔT1) maps were computed to assess enhancement. ChP, white matter lesions (WML), normal-appearing white matter (NAWM), and gray matter (GM) were segmented. Pre-contrast quantitative T1 (qT1) values were compared between groups, and linear regression with mean ChP ΔT1 was performed for WML volume and pre-gadolinium (Gd) mean qT1 of WML, NAWM, and GM.

resultsMean qT1 of ChP, NAWM, and GM, as well as ChP volume, were higher in MS compared to controls (p < 0.001). ChP ΔT1 was significantly associated with pre-Gd qT1 of NAWM (β = 0.20, R

conclusionsThe association between ChP enhancement and diffuse tissue injury, together with elevated qT1 values and ChP volumes in MS, supports a mechanism of brain injury involving CSF-mediated toxicity distinct from classic lesion pathology in MS.
