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

Introduction: Respiratory status is one of the main factors affecting the length of survival in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) - the most common, severe, progressive muscular dystrophy. Aim of the study was (1) to assess pulmonary function in DMD patients using the Material and methods: We evaluated 55 boys (aged 5-18 years) with DMD. The spirometry was performed with: forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV Results: 25 (45%) subjects were non-ambulatory, 38 (69%) used steroid therapy. Mean FVC[ Conclusions: Analysis of the pulmonary function test based on
