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

purposeTo characterize the clinical features and perform linkage analysis of candidate loci in a large Illinois family with autosomal dominant limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and Paget disease of bone (PDB).

methodsThe family includes 11 affected individuals (8 M, 3 F). Clinical, biochemical and radiologic evaluations were performed to delineate clinical features of the disorder. Linkage analysis with polymorphic markers was performed for previously identified LGMD, PDB and cardiomyopathy loci.

resultsOnset of PDB is early, at a mean age of 35 y, with classic distribution involving the spine, pelvis, and skull. Muscle weakness and atrophy is progressive with mildly elevated to normal creatine phosphokinase levels. Muscle biopsy in the oldest male revealed vacuolated fibers, however, in others revealed nonspecific myopathy. Affected individuals die from progressive muscle weakness, and respiratory and cardiac failure in their 40s-60s. Linkage analysis excluded autosomal dominant and recessive LGMD, PDB, and cardiomyopathy loci.

conclusionAutosomal dominant LGMD associated with PDB is an unusual disorder. Linkage analysis indicates a unique locus in this family.
