A novel homozygous variant (c.5876T > C: p. Leu1959Pro) in DYSF segregates with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy: a case report.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundLimb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) constitute a heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders with a very variable clinical presentation and overlapping traits. The clinical symptoms of LGMD typically appear in adolescence or early adulthood. Genetic variation in the dysferlin gene (DYSF) has been associated with LGMD.
methodsWe characterized a recessive LGMD in a young adult from consanguineous Irani families using whole-exome sequencing (WES) technology. Sanger sequencing was performed to verify the identified variant. Computational modeling and protein-protein docking were used to investigate the impact of the variant on the structure and function of the DYSF protein.
resultsBy WES, we identified a novel homozygous missense variant in DYSF (NM_003494.4: c.5876T > C: p. Leu1959Pro) previously been associated with LGMD phenotypes.
conclusionsThe identification and validation of new pathogenic DYSF variant in the present study further highlight the importance of this gene in LGMD.
