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

introductionRisdiplam is a pharmacological agent developed for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) associated with 5q deletion, with the therapeutic objective of increasing the concentration of the survival motor neuron 2 protein. Most clinical trials and real-world studies have focused on pediatric and young adult populations. Our aim was to assess the effectiveness of risdiplam treatment in adult patients with SMA type IIb and III.

methodsWe studied 8 adult patients with SMA (3 females/5 males). Patient functionality was assessed using the Egen Klassifikation version 2 (EK2) scale, upper limb function with the 9-hole peg test (9HPT, seconds), and respiratory function with peak flow (L/min) and sniff nasal inspiratory pressure (SNIP, cmH

resultsThe median age was 55 years (range: 41-66). At 12 months, EK2 scores showed a trend toward improvement in swallowing [item 16] (

conclusionsIn our series, treatment with risdiplam may stabilize adult patients with type IIb-III SMA.
