Wilson's Disease Myopathy: A Case Report and Brief Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Wilson's disease is a rare genetic disorder of copper toxicity with known systemic, multiorgan effects. The spectrum of symptoms is wide, ranging from relatively common and well-described central neurologic involvement to sparse case reports describing peripheral neuromuscular involvement, particularly as a primary presenting symptom. We describe a case involving a convoluted diagnostic course that ultimately led to a diagnosis of myopathy attributed to newly diagnosed Wilson's disease in a 37-year-old male. We also provide a literature review of similar cases and proposed pathophysiologic mechanisms, consolidating current knowledge on the spectrum of musculoskeletal symptoms associated with Wilson's disease. This case illustrates the importance of considering Wilson's disease in cases of peripheral idiopathic myopathies, especially when comorbidities may be consolidated to suggest a single overarching causative diagnosis.
