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
Background: Natalizumab (NTZ) is a highly effective disease-modifying therapy for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), originally administered intravenously (IV). A subcutaneous formulation (SC_NTZ) became available in Switzerland in 2021, offering potential advantages. Objective: To investigate satisfaction and convenience of use of SC_NTZ in MS patients. Design: Swiss, prospective, multicenter study. Methods: Consecutive RRMS patients treated with either ⩽6 (starters) or > 6 (long-term users) SC_NTZ injections completed the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire with Medication-II (TSQM-II, higher scores indicating greater satisfaction) and the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ) at baseline (Visit 1, V1). Starters were reassessed at the 9th SC_NTZ dose (Visit 2, V2). Non-parametric tests were applied to compare long-term users with starters at V1, and changes from V1 to V2 in starters. Results: One hundred six patients (73.6% female, median age 39.6 years, prior IV_NTZ 81.1%) were enrolled, including 79 long-term users and 27 starters. At V1, in the overall group the median (IQR) TSQM-II effectiveness, side effects, convenience and global satisfaction scores were 83 (67-100), 100 (92-100), 83 (72-89) and 83 (75-100), respectively. On the PSQ, the most commonly cited benefit was short administration time (80.2%). SC_NTZ treatment "never" affected work attendance in 54/87 (62.1%) employed patients. Seventy-nine percent participants reported spending ⩽1 h for SC_NTZ administration. Nonetheless, 76/86 (88.4%) of switchers from IV_NTZ found opportunities for discussions with healthcare professionals to be "similar"/"improved," and 78 (90.7%) preferred SC_NTZ. Findings were consistent across subgroups and time points. Conclusion: This real-world, multicenter Swiss study supports SC_NTZ as a well-tolerated, highly accepted, and patient-preferred alternative to IV_NTZ.
