Congenital myotonic dystrophy.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Myotonic muscular dystrophy is the most frequent autosomal muscular dystrophy affecting adults and children. It affects multiple organ systems and is probably the best example of variable expressivity in a human disease. This article presents a patient with congenital myotonic dystrophy who had facial dysmorphism, hypotonia, talipes, feeding and respiratory difficulties in the neonatal period and later presented to us with developmental delay and had percussion myotonia. His mother had clinical and electrophysiological features of myotonia. Expansion of unstable CTG trinucleotide repeat in the myotonic protein kinase gene was demonstrated in both. The identification of this molecular defect allows its specific diagnosis in relation to other neuromuscular disorders as well as accurate prenatal diagnosis.
