Assessing Internal States In Children With Neuromuscular Disorders Through An Oral Narrative Task.
Article in Clinical neuropsychiatry, 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
Objective: Neuromuscular disorders (NMD) are rare, chronic diseases affecting muscle and nerve function, leading to motor, cognitive, and socio-emotional challenges. While physical and cognitive aspects have been widely studied, socio-emotional functioning remains underexplored. This study assessed the feasibility of using invented oral stories to examine internal state language in children with NMD compared to typically developing peers. Method: Forty 5-12 years old children (20 with NMD, 20 typically developing) spontaneously narrated fictional stories, analyzed for structure, cohesion, and psychological lexicon that refers to words expressing internal mental and emotional states. Results: Results showed no significant differences in narrative structure or cohesion, supporting the feasibility of oral storytelling. However, children with NMD used more physiological and socio-relational terms, emphasizing their attention to bodily experiences and social interactions as coping strategies. Conclusions: These findings highlight oral narratives as a valuable tool to access socio-emotional development in children with NMD through narrative-based interventions.
