Baseline Range of Motion, Strength, Motor Function, and Participation in Youth with Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome.
Article in Physical & occupational therapy in pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimsLimited information is available on impairments, activity limitations and participation restrictions in youth with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a rare genetic premature aging disease. The purposes were to: (1) describe range of motion (ROM), grip, pinch and quadriceps strength, functional balance, walking endurance, and gross motor limitations and participation restrictions; (2) evaluate the association between ROM impairments and age; and (3) evaluate the association between the Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM) scores and lower extremity (LE) ROM, quadriceps strength, and age.
methodsUpper and LE ROM, grip, pinch and quadriceps strength, Timed Up and Go (TUG), Six Minute Walk Test, GMFM-88, and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure data were recorded for 38 participants with HGPS.
resultsAll youth exhibited ROM impairments and most displayed decreased grip and pinch strength, walking endurance, and gross motor skills when compared to same-aged peers. However, the majority had good functional balance with TUG scores in the normal range. Participation restrictions included difficulty keeping up with peers when walking and difficulty completing activities of daily living. Some ROM measurements were negatively associated with age indicating that older participants had more extensive ROM limitation than younger participants.
conclusionsPhysical and occupational therapists can use this information when evaluating youth with HGPS, designing a plan of care, and providing treatment interventions.
