MYH2-associated myopathy caused by a novel splice-site variant.
Article in Neuromuscular disorders : NMD, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02450851 (Clinical and Genetic Evaluation of Patients With Undiagnosed Disorders Through the Undiagnosed Diseases Network), which is not on this map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
MYH2 encodes MyHCIIa, a myosin heavy chain found in fast type 2A fibers. Pathogenic variants in this gene have previously been implicated in dominant and recessive forms of myopathy. Three individuals reported here are part of a family in which four generations of individuals are affected by a slowly progressive, predominantly proximal myopathy in an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Affected individuals in this family lacked classic features of an MYH2-associated myopathy such as congenital contractures and ophthalmoplegia. A novel variant, MYH2 c.5673+1G>C, was detected in the proband and subsequently found to segregate with disease in five additional family members. Further studies demonstrated that this variant affects splicing, resulting in novel transcripts. These data and muscle biopsy findings in the proband, indicate that this family's MYH2 variant is causative of their myopathy, adding to our understanding of the clinical and molecular characteristics of the disease.
