Perks of Rehabilitation in Improving Motor Function in a Nine-Year-Old Male With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive disorder. It is the most typical X-linked muscular dystrophy in children. It primarily affects males and is characterized by motor delays, muscle weakness, respiratory impairment, and loss of ambulation. A case study of a nine-year-old male diagnosed with DMD is presented. The patient had difficulty walking since the age of four and had a proximal lower extremity weakness on both sides previously with a reduced range of motion (ROM). For the last 15 days, the patient is unable to walk and has hypotonia in both lower limbs. The diagnostic Gowers sign was positive. Balance and mobility were affected. Treatment of this patient is focused mostly on maintaining the range of motion (ROM), respiratory training, and balance.
