1 · What the graph read from it

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.

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.

Abstract

Achondroplasia is a skeletal dysplasia condition caused by reduced endochondral ossification resulting in disproportionate short stature and skeletal deformities, including thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK) and spinal stenosis. Vosoritide, the first and only approved targeted therapy for achondroplasia, increases bone growth, but its impact on spinal morphology has not been assessed. The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 CANOPY ACH-2I study (111-206; NCT03583697) evaluated the safety and efficacy of vosoritide in 75 children aged 0 to <5 years. Interpedicular distance (IPD), sagittal width of the lumbar spinal canal, and TLK angle were measured on spinal radiographs taken at baseline and 1 year after vosoritide or placebo treatment. Differences in least-squares mean (LSM) change from baseline (95% CI) between treatment groups were determined with an analysis of covariance model. Measurable improvements in IPD and spinal canal width across L1 to L5 were observed with vosoritide compared with placebo after 1 year. L4 was the most impacted by vosoritide for IPD (LSM difference [95% CI], 0.509 [-0.034 to 1.052] mm,
