Clinical and genetic determinants of survival in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients from North India.
Article in Brain communications, 2026. 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
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration, with significant clinical and genetic variability. While the role of genetic factors is well-established in ALS pathogenesis, their impact on survival outcomes remains poorly understood, particularly in the Indian population. We performed whole-exome sequencing in 159 ALS patients from North India (familial = 2, sporadic = 157). Clinical parameters, including age at onset, site of onset, sex, family history and survival, were recorded. Males exhibited shorter survival than females, but did not achieve statistical significance (median: 48 versus 60 years,
