Dystrophic Myopathy of the Diaphragm with Recurrent Severe Respiratory Failure is Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome 11.
Article in Journal of neuromuscular diseases, 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
We here present the case of a patient with a congenital myasthenic syndrome (CMS) due to pathogenic variants in the RAPSN gene. During childhood he experienced recurrent episodes of respiratory failure during respiratory infections. This and other cases were reported as isolated dystrophy of the diaphragmatic musculature. In adulthood, whole exome sequencing revealed two heterozygous pathogenic variants in the RAPSN gene. This led to the revision of the diagnosis to rapsyn CMS11 (OMIM:616326, MONDO:0014588). EMG, muscle ultrasound and the revision of muscle biopsies taken in childhood support this diagnosis. After the revision of the diagnosis, treatment with pyridostigmine was started. This resulted in a reduction of fatigability and an improvement in functional abilities and quality of life.
