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

purpose of reviewMuscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of inherited muscular disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and in many cases cardiac and respiratory muscle involvement. Historically, these disorders are considered incurable with grave prognoses. The genes responsible for most muscular dystrophies are known, and early diagnosis is achievable with proper clinical recognition and advanced genetic testing. This article reviews recent advances in the development of novel treatments and biomarkers in the realm of muscular dystrophies commonly encountered in pediatric population. RECENT

findingsThe therapeutic landscape of muscular dystrophies has changed with the development of new approved treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the most common and severe muscular dystrophy. This has paved the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for not only DMD but also other muscular dystrophies. This article reviews recent advances in the development of novel treatments and biomarkers in the realm of muscular dystrophies commonly encountered in pediatric population.
