Enhancing respiratory function in neuromuscular disease: the role of non-invasive ventilation. A narrative review.
Review in Acta myologica : myopathies and cardiomyopathies : official journal of the Mediterranean Society of Myology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) comprise a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by extreme progressive muscle weakness leading to respiratory failure. Noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) has emerged as a cornerstone in the management of respiratory complications associated with NMDs. This review aims to elucidate the role of NMV in respiratory function, improving quality of life, and prolonging survival in individuals with NMD. The physiological basis of respiratory impairment in NMDs, principles of NMV application, evidence supporting its efficacy, patient selection criteria, and potential challenges in its application are discussed.
