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

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare neuromuscular disease that develops as a result of the degeneration of the anterior horn cells in the spinal cord and lower brainstem motor nuclei, resulting in progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. While the initial presentation of this disease involves diffuse muscular atrophy at an early age, patients with an established diagnosis and later-stage disease often present with gastrointestinal symptoms related to metabolic imbalances. Here, we examine the case of an adult patient with SMA type II who presented with complaints of 12 hours of intractable nausea and vomiting. The patient was found to be in euglycemic ketoacidosis (EKA), an uncommon, but not unheard of, metabolic derangement in SMA patients with severely decreased muscle mass.
