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

Dystrophinopathies comprise a group of hereditary muscle disorders characterized by progressive wasting and weakness of skeletal muscle, as a result of degeneration of muscle fibers, and can be distinguished by the mode of transmission, age at onset and pattern of muscle weakness. The range of phenotypes associated with the region Xp21 has been expanding since identification of the gene in 1987. The mild end of the spectrum includes the phenotype of the muscle cramps with myoglobinuria and isolated quadriceps myopathy, while at the severe end, there are progressive muscle diseases that are classified as Duchenne / Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD).
