Variants in Genes of Calpain System as Modifiers of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 Phenotype.
Article in Journal of molecular neuroscience : MN, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Calpain-mediated proteolysis has been proposed to modulate the pathogenesis of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, also known as Machado-Joseph disease (SCA3/MJD), a disorder due to a CAG repeat expansion (CAGexp) at ATXN3. We aimed to investigate if single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at calpain gene CAPN2 and at calpastatin gene CAST modulate the age at onset (AO) and disease progression in SCA3/MJD. A total of 287 SCA3/MJD symptomatic subjects (151 families) were included. AO was analyzed and controlled by the CAG repeat length of expanded allele and family. Candidate polymorphisms were chosen based on the literature and on a priori criteria. The CAG repeat length and SNPs were genotyped according to standard methods. AO of carriers of AA and AG + GG
