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 genetic disorder that causes progressive degeneration of lower motor neurons and the subsequent loss of muscle function throughout the body. It is the second most common recessive disorder in individuals of European descent and is present in all populations. Accurate tools exist for diagnosing SMA from genome sequencing data. However, there are no publicly available tools for GRCh38-aligned data from panel or exome sequencing assays which continue to be used as first line tests for neuromuscular disorders. This deficiency creates a critical gap in our ability to diagnose SMA in large existing rare disease cohorts, as well as newly sequenced exome and panel datasets. We therefore developed and extensively validated a new tool - SMA Finder - that can diagnose SMA not only in genome, but also exome and panel sequencing samples aligned to GRCh37, GRCh38, or T2T-CHM13. It works by evaluating aligned reads that overlap the c.840 position of
