Clinical monitoring in a patient with Friedreich ataxia and osteogenic sarcoma.
Article in Journal of child neurology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Friedreich ataxia is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the FXN gene that result in abnormally low levels of the mitochondrial protein frataxin. The authors recently used a lateral flow immunoassay to measure frataxin levels in a large cohort of controls, carriers, and patients with the condition. The findings show that frataxin levels do not appreciably change over time and correlate well with GAA(1) repeat length and age of onset; thus, frataxin is a reliable and stable marker for severity of disease. In this article, the authors present a patient diagnosed as having Friedreich ataxia and osteosarcoma who received combined methotrexate, doxorubicin (Adriamycin), and cisplatin (MAP) chemotherapy over 8 months. The authors assessed the effect of treatment on frataxin levels, blood cell counts, and clinical markers of cardiomyopathy. Results of the regimen and the use of MAP chemotherapy for treatment of neoplasms in individuals with Friedreich ataxia are discussed.
