1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Therapy of motoneuron diseases entered a new phase with the use of intrathecal antisense oligonucleotide therapies treating patients with specific gene mutations predominantly in the context of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. With the majority of cases being sporadic, we conducted a cohort study to describe the mutational landscape of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We analysed genetic variants in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated genes to assess and potentially increase the number of patients eligible for gene-specific therapies. We screened 2340 sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients from the German Network for motor neuron diseases for variants in 36 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated genes using targeted next-generation sequencing and for the
