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

Objective: Myofibrillar myopathies (MFM) are a group of sporadic and inherited progressive skeletal muscle disorders that can lead to physical disability and premature death. To date, pathogenic variants in different genes are associated with MFM. MFM induced by variants in the Desmin ( Case presentation: A 15-year-old boy with MFM was described, whose symptoms first presented as cardiac symptoms. Enlarged right and left atria, thickened ventricular septal (IVS) and mild mitral (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in the echocardiography were found. Atrial fibrillation, intermittent atrioventricular (AV) block, ST-T changes in the dynamic electrocardiogram (ECG) were shown. Mild myopathic changes in the electromyographic exam were detected. Ultrastructural analysis found slight Z-line changes and a few small myolysis lesions, but no abnormal inclusion bodies. Genetic testing detected a heterozygous missense variant (c.1216C > T) of DES, and 2 rare variants:
