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

Infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) is characterized by virtually complete absence of acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA)-activity, resulting in rapidly progressive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), profound skeletal muscle weakness, and death usually within the first 12 months of life. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant GAA in humans started in 1999, and pivotal studies demonstrated that the treatment ameliorated HCM, improved motor function in some patients, and prolonged overall and ventilator-free survival. These outcomes led to the approval of ERT in 2006. Implementation of ERT has uncovered multisystemic character of IOPD, not known in the pre-ERT era. Although ERT has substantially improved the prognosis of IOPD, mortality is still considerable, and decline of motor function with time is frequent in long-term survivors. This review details the new complex IOPD phenotype, outlines problems related to ERT, and highlights unmet needs.
