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 an immune-mediated central nervous system disease with mapped genetic risk loci but unresolved cross-layer regulatory mechanisms. We harmonised 30 primary public MS datasets spanning bulk transcriptomics (552 samples, 367 MS/185 healthy control [HC]), DNA methylation arrays (475 samples, 244 MS/231 HC) with sorted-cell whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) assessment, single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq; 517,533 cells from 81 donors), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain white-matter proteomes, and UK Biobank Pharma Proteomics Project (UK Biobank-PPP) plasma proteomic statistics (407 MS/39,979 HC) for external validation. We prioritised MS-associated genes showing inverse-concordant, cohort-level methylation-expression associations and orthogonal support across layers. After harmonised reprocessing and per-stratum differential testing, a bulk-RNA × methylation inverse-concordance filter followed by an independent proteomic and/or donor-level single-cell anchor identified two Tier-1 candidates (
