[Rare diseases in the differential diagnosis of myalgia].
Article in Schmerz (Berlin, Germany), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Myalgia describes pain in the skeletal muscles. According to the current German clinical guidelines from 2020 (AWMF register number: 030/051), the initial diagnostic assessment consists of the anamnesis, clinical examination, electrophysiological examination and standard laboratory tests. Additional special examinations, such as molecular genetic investigations, special laboratory tests, medical imaging and muscle biopsy are only needed in certain cases. This article focuses on rare neurological diseases that are classically associated with myalgia. In this context etiologically different diseases are considered, whereby some genetically linked diseases (fascioscapulohumeral dystrophy, FSHD, dystrophia myotonica, McArdle's disease, Pompe's disease, limb girdle muscular dystrophy) are contrasted with diseases with an (auto)immune-related pathogenesis (stiff-person syndrome, Isaacs syndrome). The aspects relevant for the diagnosis are particularly highlighted. The therapeutic aspects of the diseases are not part of this article.
