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

Background and Objectives: Spinal muscular atrophy 5q (SMA) is a motor neuron disorder caused by recessive pathogenic variants in the Methods: Over the past 20 years, we confirmed a molecular diagnosis of SMA in 149 patients consisting of 138 postnatal and 11 prenatal cases, through a quantitative molecular approach (real-time PCR and/or multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification) associated with direct sequencing. Results: We identified homozygous Discussion: The identification of small pathogenic variants in patients with SMA is of paramount importance for enhancing diagnosis and prognosis, deciphering response variations to existing treatments, and designing novel therapies tailored to address these genetic variants. We propose a paradigm shift from current guidelines, particularly for patients with a heterozygous
