Increased Otoferlin Expression in B Cells Is Associated with Muscle Weakness in Untreated Juvenile Dermatomyositis: A Pilot Study.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Otoferlin mRNA expression is increased in JDM patients' PBMCs and muscle compared to healthy controls. This study aims to evaluate the role of otoferlin in JDM disease pathophysiology and its association with disease activity in untreated children with JDM. A total of 26 untreated JDM (88.5% female, 92.3% white, non-Hispanic) and 15 healthy controls were included in this study. Otoferlin mRNA expression was determined by qRT-PCR before and a few months after therapy. Detailed flow cytometry of various cell surface markers and cytoplasmic otoferlin was performed to identify cells expressing otoferlin. In addition, muscle otoferlin expression was evaluated in situ in six untreated JDM patients and three healthy controls. There was a significant increase in otoferlin expression in JDM children compared to controls (Median 67.5 vs. 2.1;
