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

We presented a letter about a case of a 37-year-old Black female with a history of human immunodeficiency virus and an undetectable viral load. She was evaluated with weakness in the scapular (grade III) and pelvic girdles (grade II), elevation of creatine phosphokinase levels and muscle biopsy compatible with nemaline myopathy. She was treated with rituximab showing improvement of the condition.
