Clinical and molecular spectrum of mucopolysaccharidosis IVA in Iraqi children: Allele-specific genotype-phenotype trends and novel GALNS variants.
Article in Molecular genetics and metabolism reports, 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
Background: Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA; Morquio A syndrome) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder that causes early-onset skeletal dysplasia and progressive multisystem involvement. Although international cohorts have been described, population-specific data from the Middle East remain limited. Objective: This study aimed to characterize the clinical spectrum, functional status, and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 33 children from 26 unrelated families with confirmed MPS IVA, recruited at the Children's Welfare Teaching Hospital in Baghdad between 2016 and 2022. Enzyme activity was measured on dried blood spots by LC-MS/MS, and Results: Fifteen distinct Conclusion: This first Iraqi cohort expands the
