The Relevance of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Biomarkers in the Treatment Era.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a severe neuromuscular disorder that currently has an approved treatment for all forms of the disease. Previously, biomarkers were primarily used for diagnostic purposes, such as detecting the presence of the disease or determining a specific clinical type of SMA. Currently, with the availability of therapy, biomarkers have become more valuable due to their potential for prognostic, predictive, and pharmacodynamic applications. This review describes the most promising physiological, functional, imaging and molecular biomarkers for SMA, derived from different patients' tissues. The review summarizes information about classical biomarkers that are already used in clinical practice as well as fresh findings on promising biomarkers that have been recently disclosed. It highlights the usefulness, limitations, and strengths of each potential biomarker, indicating the purposes for which each is best suited and when combining them may be most beneficial.
