Umbilical Cord Blood Sampling for Newborn Screening of Pompe Disease and the Detection of a Novel Pathogenic Variant and Pseudodeficiency Variants in an Asian Population.
Article in International journal of neonatal screening, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pompe disease is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency. The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) for newborn screening (NBS) of Pompe disease, compared to heel-prick sampling, has not been widely studied. This study compared GAA activity in UCB from term newborns with peripheral or heel-prick blood samples obtained on days 1, 2, and 3 after birth. Enzyme assays were performed using UPLC-MS/MS. Sanger sequencing was conducted in infants with low GAA activity to identify pathogenic variants. Among 4091 UCB samples analyzed over 18 months, the mean GAA activity was 10.04 ± 5.95 μM/h, higher in females than males [Median (IQR): 9.83 (5.45) vs. 9.08 (4.97) μM/h, respectively,
