Interests and Experiences of Young Adults with Muscular Dystrophy in Receiving Genetic Information.
Article in Journal of child neurology, 2025. 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
Growing public awareness of genetic research, increased availability of genetic testing options, and the recent arrival of several gene-targeted therapies have combined to make genetic testing a topic of interest within many disease communities, including muscular dystrophies. We sought to investigate the genetic information received, the genetic services provided, the genetic information and services of interest to young adults with muscular dystrophy, and to identify existing gaps in the delivery of genetic information and services. Young adults with muscular dystrophy were surveyed about their interests and experiences in receiving genetic information/testing. Surveys were completed by 226 young adults with muscular dystrophy (150 male, 72 female; mean age = 21.6 years, range = 16-25 years) from Canada and the United States. Approximately 60% or less of respondents felt knowledgeable about genetic topics, including inheritance and reproductive options. Only 28% of respondents had previously met with a genetic counselor and 60% of respondents wanted to obtain more information. Findings highlight gaps between the receipt of and interest in genetic information.
