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

Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) is a single-stranded RNA virus that belongs to the family of picornaviruses. Intracranial inoculation of susceptible mouse strains with TMEV results in biphasic disease, consisting of early acute disease that resembles poliomyelitis, followed by late chronic demyelinating disease that is characterized by the appearance of chronic inflammatory demyelinating lesions. Susceptibility to TMEV infection is genetically controlled by three loci: one that maps to the H-2D region of the major histocompatibility complex, one to the beta-chain constant region of the T-cell antigen receptor, and one located on chromosome 3. Both early acute and chronic late demyelinating diseases are immunologically mediated. T cells appear to play an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease. TMEV-induced demyelinating disease in mice has extensive similarities with multiple sclerosis, and it is considered one of the best experimental animal models for multiple sclerosis.
