Beyond muscle: Delivering RNA therapeutics to the CNS in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Review in Journal of neuromuscular diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a severe genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration due to mutations in the dystrophin gene. In addition to the well-known musculoskeletal, cardiac, and respiratory symptoms, DMD also involves significant central nervous system (CNS) manifestations, including cognitive, behavioral, and emotional deficits that profoundly affect patient quality of life. Despite advances in RNA-based therapies targeting muscle symptoms, CNS manifestations remain largely untreated. Preclinical studies in animal models have shown promising results in addressing these deficits through CNS-targeted delivery of antisense oligonucleotides, highlighting the potential of intrathecal and next-generation systemic delivery methods. This review explores the latest advancements in RNA therapeutics for DMD, focusing on overcoming the challenges of CNS delivery to address both muscular and neurological symptoms.
