Predictive value of gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for relapse rate and changes in disability or impairment in multiple sclerosis: a meta-analysis
Open accessAbstract
Background Reliable prognostic factors are lacking for multiple sclerosis (MS). Gadolinium enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain detects with high sensitivity disturbance of the blood-brain barrier, an early event in the development of inflammatory lesions in MS. To investigate the prognostic value of gadolinium-enhanced MRI, we did a meta-analysis of longitudinal MRI studies. Methods From the members of MAGNIMS (European Magnetic Resonance Network in Multiple Sclerosis) and additional centres in the USA, we collected data from five natural-course studies and four placebo groups of clinical trials completed between 1992 and 1995. We included a total of 307 patients, 237 with relapsing disease course and 70 with secondary progressive disease course. We investigated by regression analysis the relation between initial count of gadolinium-enhancing lesions and subsequent worsening of disability or impairment as measured by the expanded disability status scale (EDSS) and relapse rate. Findings The relapse rate in the first year was predicted with moderate ability by the mean number of gadolinium-enhancing lesions in monthly scans during the first 6 months (relative risk per five lesions 1.13, p=0.023). The predictive value of the number of gadolinium-enhancing lesions in one baseline scan was less strong. The best predictor for relapse rate was the variation (SD) of lesion counts in the first six monthly scans which allowed an estimate of relapse in the firs…

In the citing paper
“Conventional T2-weighted MRI (cMRI) largely fails to predict the degree of patients' disability.”
From Diffusion tensor imaging of post mortem multiple sclerosis brain (2007) · cites this paper as Kappos et al., 1999
In the citing paper
“The inability of cMRI to reflect MS pathology in more detail may be one of the major reasons why the correlation between cMRI measures and disability is only modest (Kappos et al., 1999; Brex et al., 2002).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
