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

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Hirschsprung's disease is a condition characterized by absence of nerves in the intestines, secondary to failure of migration of neural crest cells therein. Co-occurrence of these conditions is reported previously in a family with a stop mutation in the EDNRB gene. In the present report we present the case of a 26-year-old man who presented with complaints of left facial weakness, episodic generalized headaches, and imbalance. He was previously diagnosed with Hirschsprung's disease and had undergone total colectomy. Subsequent evaluations confirmed MS. Family history was unremarkable, with no family members affected by either condition. Furthermore, we present our experience in managing the case with dimethyl fumarate disease-modifying therapy.
