An Overview of Recent Advances and Clinical Applications of Exon Skipping and Splice Modulation for Muscular Dystrophy and Various Genetic Diseases.

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
Exon skipping and splice modulation using synthetic antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) are therapeutic approaches to delay or arrest the progression of genetic diseases. AON-mediated exon skipping modifies pre-mRNA splicing to correct the reading frame of genes responsible for disease and modulate a protein structure, providing therapeutic benefits. Studied for over two decades, exon skipping AONs have received conditional marketing authorization for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted accelerated approval for four AONs to skip a single DMD exon for treating patients with DMD: eteplirsen for exon 51 skipping, golodirsen and viltolarsen for exon 53 skipping, and casimersen for exon 45 skipping. Various preclinical and clinical trials are underway with AONs targeting other exons and ones loading bioconjugates, such as cell-penetrating peptides and antibodies to enhance the exon skipping ability. Besides AONs targeting pre-mRNA, genomic DNA target exon skipping using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) technology, which holds promise in current preclinical trials for DMD. In hopes of achieving clinical success parallel to DMD, exon skipping and splice modulation are studied in other muscular dystrophies, such as Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), dysferlinopathy including limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B), Miyoshi myopathy (MM), and distal anterior compartment myopathy (DMAT), myotonic dystrophy, and merosin-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy type 1A (MDC1A). Splice-modulating AONs have also been extensively tested in other inherited diseases, such as Usher syndrome, dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB), fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), and allergic diseases. This chapter will introduce the developmental status of exon skipping and splice-modulating therapies for genetic diseases.
