The benefit of diet on paradoxical breathing and sleep in Osteogenesis imperfecta.
Article in Orphanet journal of rare diseases, 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
We evaluated breathing (i.e.: thoracic contribution to tidal volume in the supine position) and sleep (i.e.: apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)) before and after a 6-month of restricted Mediterranean Diet on 22 volunteers with a confirmed diagnosis of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (median age: 37.8 years; 17 women; 13 type III). At the end of the 6 months, 8 individuals (median age: 38.1 years, 5 females, 3 type III) did not spontaneously follow the diet therefore serving as the control group (CtrOI) for the 14 (median age: 34.7 years, 10 females, 9 type III) who completed the program (DietOI). AHI tended to decrease in DietOI, while it even tended to increase in CtrOI. The thoracic contribution to tidal volume in the supine position of DietOI passed from almost no expansion before diet to a significant expansion after diet; while it was negative in CtrOI indicating systematic paradoxical breathing in the supine position. This pilot study show that the main beneficial effect of diet was a to significantly expand the thorax in supine position with a tendency to reduce the AHI index.
