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.

2 · The registry

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

Distal myopathy refers to a heterogeneous group of disorders in which the initial manifestations are weakness and atrophy of the hands and feet. We report a family segregating an autosomal dominant distal myopathy, with multiple affected individuals in whom vocal cord and pharyngeal weakness may accompany the distal myopathy, without involvement of the ocular muscles. To our knowledge, this pedigree displays a distinct distal myopathy with the added features of pharyngeal and vocal cord dysfunction (VCPDM) that has not been previously reported. We mapped the MPD2 gene for VCPDM to chromosome 5q within a 12-cM linkage interval between markers D5S458 and D5S1972 in a large pedigree (a maximum LOD score of 12.94 at a recombination fraction of 0 for D5S393) and combined genome screening and DNA pooling successfully adapted to fluorescent markers. This technique provides for the possibility of fully automated genome scans.
