A challenging etiology of myopathy: The late-onset Pompe disease.
Article in European journal of rheumatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pompe disease is a rare metabolic disorder that is characterized by the deficiency of the acid aglucosidase. As a result, glycogen accumulates in several tissues including motor neurons, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles. The course of the disease varies according to the type of mutations, and the clinical phenotype can be affected by the enzyme levels. Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a challenging issue for clinicians as it has a milder phenotype with later onset of symptoms and slower disease progression. One of the most important differentials in the diagnosis of LOPD is inflammatory myositis as both diseases have some common clinical and laboratory features. Herein, we presented a 30-year-old female patient initially diagnosed as polymyositis and treated with immunosuppressive therapy without a benefit on her symptoms and later diagnosed as LOPD.
