Review in Journal of smooth muscle research = Nihon Heikatsukin Gakkai kikanshi, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Pompe disease (OMIM 232300) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding acid α-glucosidase (GAA) (EC 3.2.1.20), the enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing lysosomal glycogen. The primary cellular pathology is lysosomal glycogen accumulation in cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle, and motor neurons, which ultimately results in cardiorespiratory failure. However, the severity of pathology and its impact on clinical outcomes are poorly described in smooth muscle. The advent of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in 2006 has improved clinical outcomes in infantile-onset Pompe disease patients. Although ERT increases patient life expectancy and ventilator free survival, it is not entirely curative. Persistent motor neuron pathology and weakness of respiratory muscles, including airway smooth muscles, contribute to the need for mechanical ventilation by some patients on ERT. Some patients on ERT continue to experience life-threatening pathology to vascular smooth muscle, such as aneurysms or dissections within the aorta and cerebral arteries. Better characterization of the disease impact on smooth muscle will inform treatment development and help anticipate later complications. This review summarizes the published knowledge of smooth muscle pathology associated with Pompe disease in animal models and in patients.
