[Standard treatment for myositis and muscular dystrophies].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We summarize the current therapeutic strategies and options in inflammatory myositis and the muscular dystrophies. In myositis, the therapeutic options include basic therapy with glucocorticosteroids and other standard immunosuppressive agents, and in individual cases escalating treatment with chemotherapy or monoclonal antibodies. The exact therapeutic sequence should be performed depending on the type of myositis and the response to immunosuppression.At present, there are still no effective causative interventions to significantly alter the progression of the muscular dystrophies. However, first gene therapy clinical studies have been started in some forms of muscular dystrophy which may open a new field of therapeutic options. Most patients with myositis or muscular dystrophy need symptom-oriented therapies which include physical therapy, adequate cardiorespiratory treatment and orthopedic interventions. In the future novel immunosuppressive options may be available in patients with myositis and possibly causative strategies in the muscular dystrophies.
