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

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2E/R4 is caused by mutations in the β-sarcoglycan (SGCB) gene, leading to SGCB deficiency and consequent muscle loss. We developed a gene therapy approach based on functional replacement of the deficient SCB protein. Here we report interim results from a first-in-human, open-label, nonrandomized, phase 1/2 trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of bidridistrogene xeboparvovec, an adeno-associated virus-based gene therapy containing a codon-optimized, full-length human SGCB transgene. Patients aged 4-15 years with confirmed SGCB mutations at both alleles received one intravenous infusion of either 1.85 × 10
