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

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy was first introduced in the 1950s as a distinct family of unusual genetic diseases. The prevalence of the disease is about 4-7/1000, with a spectrum of onset at different ages. LGMD has a cluster of symptoms varying in severity and presentation in patients. Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy`s inheritance is unique as it can be autosomal dominant or recessive. We report a young boy with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), presented with distal muscle weakness in all four limbs for three years and thinning of legs, arms, and thighs. Our gene of focus is TTN, which is associated with muscle elasticity and myogenesis. Our subtype reported is currently associated with a new homozygous TTN variant; thus, we are writing a novel variant mutation causing limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 10.
