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

Mutations in the dynamin-2 (DNM2) gene can cause autosomal dominant or sporadic centronuclear myopathy (CNM). We aimed to analyze the clinical, pathological and genetic characteristic of patients with DNM2-related CNM in China. We studied seven patients, all of whom underwent clinical examination, muscle biopsy, electromyography, and genetic tests. DNM2 gene analysis revealed two sporadic patients harboring the p.E368K mutation, two patients from one family carrying p.R369Q, one with p.R369W, one with p.R523G and one with compound heterozygous mutations of p.R522H and p.R718Q. In DNM2-related CNM, ptosis, ophthalmoplegia/paresis, and facial weakness are the frequently observed manifestations. However, among these seven patients, only one had bilateral ptosis; one, external ophthalmoplegia and one, facial weakness. Muscle biopsy showed that the percentage of muscle fibers with centrally located nuclei ranged from 67 to 93 %, all with radial sarcoplasmic strands. To date, five different CNM-related DNM2 mutations have been observed in China. Here, a patient with compound heterozygous DNM2 mutations was reported for the first time. Facial weakness, ptosis and ophthalmoplegia did not appear to be common in Chinese patients. This study on Chinese patients broadens the spectrum of DNM2-related CNM.
