Aphasia Leading to the Diagnosis of Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multisystem autosomal dominant disorder primarily characterized by myotonia and distal muscle weakness. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement, including cognitive, executive, and emotional dysfunctions, is increasingly being recognized; however, language impairment as an initial presentation is rare. A 50-year-old right-handed woman with a six-month history of progressive word-finding difficulty, vague speech, and social withdrawal was referred for evaluation. Neurological examination revealed distal muscle atrophy (grip strength: 5 kg right, 8 kg left) without overt dysarthria or dysphagia, and intact reflexes and coordination. Neuropsychological testing revealed fluent spontaneous speech with anomia, semantic paraphasia, impaired comprehension of longer sentences, and surface dyslexia/agraphia (Mini-Mental State Examination-Japanese: 22/30, Frontal Assessment Battery: 8/18, Raven's Colored Progressive Matrices: 28/36, Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Japanese: 21/30). Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed left-sided frontotemporal and limbic atrophy, and
