Family and literature analysis demonstrates phenotypic effect of two variants in the calpain-3 gene.
Article in Neurogenetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Both, recessive (LGMD R1) and dominant (LGMD D4) inheritance occur in calpain 3-related muscular dystrophy. We report a family with calpain-related muscular dystrophy caused by two known variants in the calpain 3 gene (CAPN3, NM_000070.3; (I) c.700G>A, p.Gly234Arg and (II) c.1746-20C>G, p.?). Three family members are compound heterozygous and exhibit a relatively homogeneous phenotype characterized by progressive proximal weakness starting in the third to fourth decade of life in the shoulder girdle and spreading to the legs. Two family members affected only by the p.Gly234Arg heterozygous missense variants show a different phenotype characterized by severe exertional myalgia without overt pareses. We conclude that in our family, the missense variant causes a severe myalgic phenotype without pareses that is aggravated by the second intronic variant and put these findings in the context of previous studies of the same variants.
