Homozygosity by descent for a rare mutation in the myophosphorylase gene is associated with variable phenotypes in a Druze family with McArdle disease.
Article in Journal of medical genetics, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We examined a large consanguineous Druze family with McArdle disease for mutations in the glycogen myophosphorylase (PYGM) gene. All affected subjects were autozygous for a single G to A transition that abolishes the 5' consensus splice site in the first nucleotide of intron 14. The G to A transition is a rare mutation, with only one previous report in a single white subject heterozygous for this mutation and another, more common, mutation at codon 49. The kindred in our study is the first family reported in which disease is caused by homozygosity for this rare mutation. This kindred was originally reported as the first familial case of McArdle disease in the Druze.
