Sleep Complaints, Sleep and Breathing Disorders in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 2.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewTo update the current knowledge concerning sleep complaints and breathing disorders in myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2) and to better understand if sleep and breathing symptoms may add a further clinical definition of DM2. RECENT
findingsAlthough DM2 has been poorly evaluated, the most relevant sleep disorders are sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) (37.5-66.7%) and restless legs syndrome (RLS) (50-60%). Excessive daytime somnolence (EDS) is not consistent with SDB, and a large percentage of patients with sleep complaints (58-69%) report pain. In addition, respiratory dysfunctions are reported in 6 to 15% of DM2 patients, albeit few data are available regarding pulmonary restriction, hypoventilation, and non-invasive ventilation (NIV). SDB, RLS, and pain may contribute to sleep fragmentation and EDS in DM2. In addition, few studies report hypoventilation and pulmonary restriction, although there are no studies at all on NIV, except for limited clinical experiences. These findings suggest performing a careful pulmonary examination and NIV when required. Furthermore, sleep studies and respiratory evaluation should be recommended if OSA or respiratory muscle dysfunctions are suspected. A large polysomnographic study should be performed to clarify the link between sleep disorders, pain, and sleep disruption in DM2.
