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

introductionThe objective of this study was to obtain a 6-month natural history of motor function performance in individuals with RYR1- related myopathy (RYR1-RM) by using the Motor Function Measure-32 (MFM-32) and graded functional tests (GFT) while facilitating preparation for interventional trials.

methodsIn total, 34 participants completed the MFM-32 and GFTs at baseline and 6-month visits.

resultsMotor deficits according to MFM-32 were primarily observed in the standing and transfers domain (D1; mean 71%). Among the GFTs, participants required the most time to ascend/descend stairs (>7.5 s). Functional movement, determined by GFT grades, was strongly correlated with MFM-32 (D1; r ≥ 0.770, P < 0.001). Motor Function Measure-32 and GFT scores did not reflect any change in performance between baseline and 6-month visits. DISCUSSION: The MFM-32 and GFTs detected motor impairment in RYR1-RM, which remained stable over 6 months. Thus, these measures may be suitable for assessing change in motor function in response to therapeutic intervention. Muscle Nerve 60: 80-87, 2019.
